<p>Dear Eddy,</p>
<p>The CPM talks about selection not election. I believe as a
community, we can select from those who offer to serve based on
some minimum criteria. I do understand that election is also a
form of selection, albeit a last resort.</p>
<p>My Preference is not just a bang between the two. The PDWG works
more by consensus rather than voting (Either secret ballots or
show of hands) <br>
</p>
<p> - If one or two qualified volunteers, use them.</p>
<p> - If more than 2, let the PDWG discuss around the two most
willing and ready to do the work</p>
<p> - If we still cannot achieve at least 2 within the stated time
frame, then we vote to select 2.</p>
<p>It is OK for NOMCOM to handle the process.</p>
