<div class=""><p class="">Hi All,</p><p class="">Given that we've repeatedly stated that there should be a
nominator and a seconder for all nominations, this means we only
really received 3 nominations (3,4,5 below).</p><p class="">Given that Abulkarim (4) was one of the co-chairs removed by the
recall committee, and there has been controversy around the
previous co-chairs, in my opinion we only really have two
candidates.</p><p class="">And both of these candidates seems to be good choices. From
Vincent's (3) nomination, by Barry:</p><p class="">"Vincent is an outstanding person for the PDWG as he was the
first co-chair of the same back in the days. we need to bring back
the fundamental values and hence i nominate him"</p><p class="">I could not agree more about bringing back the fundamentals, and
plainly Vincent has experience in a co-chair position that we
desperately need at this point in time.<br class="">
</p><p class="">Regarding Darwin (5), I've gone back and read a fair number of
his emails over the last year or so, and Darwin in my opinion has
a level head, the ability to reason and understand as well. I
could not find a single example of him being involved personally
in a controversy in spite of him providing his opinion on a number
of topics.<br class="">
</p><p class="">I would thus like to make two proposals.</p><p class="">1. We select the two candidates as above, in my opinion with
Vincent in the two-year tenure and Darwin in the one year tenure.
By consensus if possible.</p><p class="">2. Given that the next meeting is two months from now, I would
like to propose that we measure these tenures as from "this year"
such that the effective tenures will be one and two years
respectively from now, and not "puppet" and "one year"
effectively.</p><p class="">Kind Regards,<br class="">
Jaco<br class="">
