*Subject: *Re: [IANA-RC] IANA RC Chair Election
Hi German,
I'd like to nominate Constanze for the IANA RC Chair position. Her
dedication and commitment to the process and the mission of the AC and RC
makes it, in my opinion, a perfect candidate. Is this note sufficient, or
should I also post to the rc-iana mailing list?
Regards,
Andrei

Dear RC
As first step before we proceed with the IANA RC meeting and the adoption
of the IANA review performance Matrix for the public consultation, we’ll
need to agree in the appointment of the IANA RC chair.
Please Voting Members of the Committee, could you consider to run for this
position, in advance of the call tomorrow. Self nominations are accepted.
Voting will be a roll call for your candidate preference during the
teleconference tomorrow.
Here the full description of the procedures on this matter
Regards
