<p>Hello,<br>
</p>
<p>We cannot appoint a co-chair in any guise outside the rules of
the PDP. If you must push anything outside the laws, then suspend
it, this way you are not guided by anything as you take a new
decision. But is it possible to suspend all our rules.</p>
<p>Therefore, I totally disagree with any new rules. let us stick to
what the books say, and be creative at using it and subsequently,
coming out with a solution to our current predicament.</p>

<p>It sounds a reasonable suggestion.<br>
I think with at least 1 Co-Chair we can get things keep moving.
The ideal would be to have two in order to avoid one person
taking decisions alone.</p>
<p>I think a good scenario is that we appoint one interim chair
and with the person in place he/she works towards the selection
of the second one as a priority.<br>
</p>
<p>Now the most important point is: do we have any experienced
people to volunteer to server at least for some time and help
the things settle down a bit ? Any names we can consider ?</p>

<p>In the light of MJE's contribution, I would like to
modify my earlier submission.</p>
<p><br>
My personal preference for Interim Chairs' selection:
<br>
<br>
• [A] a selection through rough consensus [2] After
prospects do volunteer; <br>
• [B] a selection based on ranking voting [3] if more
than 2 volunteers, then discussions; <br>
• [C] a selection based on an election (online) as
usual [1] if more than 2 candidates and discussions
stalemate; <br>
• [D] a selection inside a group of selectees based on
criteria [4] (a long and unnecessary process for
selecting the interim Chairs); <br>
• [E] any other possibility? <br>
<br>
</p>
<p>I have no problem with NOMCOM being the selectees in
[D] above. It will not be a long and un-necessary
process.<br>

<p>Ask the NomCom to ask for volunteers. Just use the

seven days.</p>
<p>With last year, I was quite ecstatic when we ended
up with just one volunteer. "Consensus" as such is
great.</p>
<p>However, we technically need one person for three
to six months and another for that same period plus
one year. I'm wondering whether it might be more
sane to extend both of these positions by one year?
- or we simply consent to have the same people
extended by an additional year each at whenever we
have the next AFRINIC meeting? Alternativly - we
could be seen as simply bringing forwards the normal
election of Co-Chairs to now(ish) - as we have an
urgent need.<br>
</p>
<p>We also need to have a system on deciding who is in
for a short term and who is in for a longer term.
Voting may be the simplest method (as this will all
be done remotely).</p>
<p>Any way - my thoughts.<br>
