<div dir="auto">Hello Sylvain,<div dir="auto">Applying or getting nomination itself is a job on it's own. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">The records are there to examine if we decide to dig down. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">The matrix has made selection easy enough to do the selection by rough concensus if not by consensus which definitely favours one candidate over the others. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Having to write long statements to justify a VOLUNTEER NON PAID position when the CV itself speaks volume in addition to the matrix is a no brainer to me. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I like fairness and process. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">From a previous NomCom experience, if the nominees fail to tick certain documented criteria such as as a simple matrix, we halt the the progress of such applications going forward. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">It is vexatious, waste of time and retrogressive to put the entire community through the stress of reading every documentation of the candidates when only one candidate meets the basic matrix of selection criteria this same RPD established and agreed upon.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Besides Darwin is a previous Cochair.

That summary should contain, usefull references regarding what it says about the nominee; for those who may want to know more</div><div> about a given nominee [5]. </div><div>7| a statement of support could add more relevant </div><div>information and references about the nominee.</div><div>8| quality of contribution is better than quantity; </div><div>but the PDWG needs more active participations :-)</div><div>9] it appears necessary to amend the actual selection criteria, but it is important to consider </div><div>that (as noted by Jordi): those who apply for a </div><div>given position should make at least few extra </div><div>efforts to show/explain (with public available </div><div>references) why they think to be the best choice.</div><div> If only one nominee provides such relevant </div><div>information it's not its fault...we should actually</div><div> work with what we have.</div><div>__</div><div>[1]: Sources include: Archive of the RPD mailinglist,</div><div>Recordings of the PPM, and more...</div><div>[2]: for exemple the file containing all emails of the RPD during year 2021 is at the following URI:</div><div><<a href="https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/rpd/2021.txt" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/rpd/2021.txt</a>></div><div>[3]: Video Recordings of previous PPMs need to </div><div>be classified into a meaningful playlist:<br></div><div><<a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/AFRINIC/playlists" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/c/AFRINIC/playlists</a>></div><div>[4]: Stats formated at the convenience of the Staff,</div><div> including the number of: DPP co-authored, single emails to RPD, threads to RPD, etc.</div><div>[5]: an amendment to the selection criteria</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Excuses, if i missed some important contributions.</div><div>...and please just add it :-)</div><div><br></div><div>Shalom,</div><div>--sb.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space"><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div><br></div><div><div>———</div><div><br></div><div>Ish Sookun</div><div><br></div><div>Systems Architect @ La Sentinelle Ltd</div></div></div></blockquote></div>
