Hi NomCOM Chair,
Good job so far, much more your efforts to correct whatever
imperfections may exist. It is a learning process.
Just a post-mortem:
It is more important to get as many good candidates as possible, indeed
willing volunteers, than reduce/restrict the candidates. It is also
important to give the membership base the opportunity to select, than
restrict their choice with one person on the slate.
The candidates could have been contacted by Telephone, and even
Whatsapp, + "friends of friends", considering the urgency involved.
Email alone, is indeed not "best effort".
Moving forward:
Indeed, NOMCOM can prospect and contact those they think can serve on
the Board and other positions, and politely ask them to be so nominated.
Two is good but three is better.
On the co-chairs, Normally, the PDWG co-chair elections are staggered,
so that the two chairs do not leave in the same year. This is to retain
experience and have a smooth transition. Since the situation of having
the two stand for election in the same year is coming up now, and the
tenures are 1 year and 2 years, then the candidate with the highest vote
can be considered elected for the two year term, and the next elected
candidate will be for the 1 year term.
Thank you for all your efforts, and all the best.
Sunday.

Dear community,
Veuillez trouvez la version française ci dessous.
The nomination committee received a question about the process for the
election of two PDWG co-chairs as one of the open seats is for a
two-year team and the other open seat is for a one-year term. The
nomination committee contacted the Afrinic elections committee to
request the process document for the elections. The nomination
committee was informed that there isn’t any documented process for the
election of two PDWG co-chairs.
The nomination committee recommends that the process for the election
of the two PDWG co-chairs should be documented so that the working
group understand how the process works.
There were nine nominations for the two the PDWG co-chair seats.
After reviewing the nominations, the nomination committee found that
there only four candidates who submitted the required information
before the endtime. The nomination committee was contacted by four
other nominees as their names did not appear in the announcement
which was sent to the RPD mailing list.
The nomination committee would like to solicit the feedback of the
PDWG on the above by Friday 7 of June at 23:59 UTC
Cher membre de la communauté
Le comité de nomination avait reçu une question d’un membre de la
communauté lors d’une session de sensibilisation sur le processus de
répartition des deux postes de co-présidence pour le PDWG. Il est
important de souligner que les deux mandatures ne possèdent pas la
même durée, un poste pour une année et une seconde pour deux années,
la question est celle de savoir comment on attribue les postes à
chacun des postulants.
Au regard de l'importance de la question le comité de nomination avait
contacté AFRINIC pour comprendre s’il y avait des documents qui
soutenaient ledit processus. Ce que nous avons compris de la réponse
du comité d’ élection qu il existe pas de procédure écrite proprement
dite.
Le comité de nomination recommande fortement que le processus
électoral soit rédigé et validé afin de faciliter la tâche du groupe
de travail.
En ce qui concerne les candidatures pour les élections de la
co-présidence du PDWG , le comité de nomination avait reçu neuf
prétendus candidatures. Après la phase de collecte d'information
supplémentaire nous avons reçus que quatres dossiers de candidatures.
Après la publication des candidatures le comité de nomination a été
contacté par quatre des autres prétendus et ils ont soumis leur dossiers.
Dans le souci de transparence et d’équité nous souhaitons solliciter
l’avis du PDWG sur les éléments évoqués. Le comité de nomination
souhaiterait avoir votre retour d’ici ce vendredi 7 juin à 23h59 TUC.
