<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>Madhvi has made some reasonable summary of the possible
direction we should take in having co-chairs. It is closer to what
we should be doing. <br>
</p>
<p>Therefore,</p>
<p>1. let us have the NoMCom setup, <br>
</p>
<p>2. let them make the call for nominations</p>
<p>3. Community members interested to volunteer can indicate.</p>
<p>4.If we have only two volunteers, then we vote to make one of the
volunteers with more votes the co-chair for two years and the
other defaults to one year.</p>
<p>5. If we have more than 2 volunteers then we vote and the person
with the highest votes become the co-chair with 2yrs tenure and
the second becomes the co-chair with one year tenure.</p>
<p>What is then so difficult with the above. Since our concern is to
move forward and as fast as possible. I think we can achieve this
within a time frame of 4weeks or max in 6weeks.</p>
<p>However, let us not introduce any rules that are targeted at
dislodging anyone in any form.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Once again let us resist any attempt of imposing co-chairs by any
body or group outside what will be generally acceptable to all.</p>
<p>By the way there is politics everywhere, even in the family unit,
NOT POLITICIANS.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
<p>Daniel<br>

<div>Hi all,</div>
<div>I think I am in support of the online voting system
It is a System that has most recently been used and to
a certain point, was effective (at least there was
little or no debate on the validity of the result). </div>
<div>The area in which I am still very much concerned
about is setting unrealistic criteria which
disenfranchises LEGITIMATE voters. </div>
<div>Some examples include: Criteria that limits new
members (who are not so new anymore as the last voting
benchmark was one year ago). Some of which as we can
evidently see have been quite active in the group. Or a
criteria that prevents passive knowledgeable members Who
watch from the background or leave the mailing list from
time to time because of the constant back and forth.</div>
<div>These voices deserve to be heard in the voting
process and their votes should count. </div>
<div><br>

<div>Kind regards</div>

<p>Hello Madhvi<br>
Thanks for the details and for the work staff is
doing about it.</p>
<p>I want to mention just 2 points about the below:</p>
<p>1 - In the case of online elections 84 days seems
like an eternity. Could not all these timeline
periods be improved be reduced to a maximum of 30 to
45 days ? <br>
For example D+30 for Candidate Nomination Period
seems too long. Also 14 days for voting is also too
long. 1 week should be more than enough.<br>
</p>
<p>2 - We MUST find a way to be able to have one
person - one vote. This is fundamental to avoid the
PDGW be taken over by certain specific interests
that would have the means to have fake people to
vote twice or more, so we have to have how to
guarantee that not only one person - one vote, but
that those who truly participate can vote, not just
anyone that was able to subscribe to the list
recently.</p>
<p>Regards<br>
Fernando<br>
