Dear RC
This is a reminder for nominations for any community appointed representative to the IANA Review Committee to serve for one year as Chair of this committee
Full procedures can be find at.
Relevant sections are posted below.
At this stage, we have one accepted nomination from Nathalia Sautchuk Patrício.
As per procedures election will take place during next teleconference through a roll call.
We are dealing with a unique situation as for the first time the last chair and vice chair are no longer part of the Review Committee so we are currently leaderless. Normally they would
perform that role until a new election is held and they moderated the elections.
I wonder if there is any volunteer who are not looking for the chair position to open the call and moderate the election process.
For your consideration
Thanks
German
