Meredith, those three requirements are a given. Or should be. All of the 
candidates meet those criteria, modulo Analisa’s potential issues over travel 
funding.

So if we start from that baseline, what additional attributes does the WG 
consider mandatory/desirable/optional for its co-chairs? What’s the ideal mix 
of skills and background?

As a for instance, I could be a possible candidate because I’m willing, able to 
attend and available. [Others may well disgaree with that opinion.] But I am 
unsuitable as a co-chair for the WG. And I hope we can all agree on that. :-)

FWIW, I can think of quite a few people in this Internet governance circus who 
would be willing, able to attend and available ...and yet be utterly 
unacceptable as a co-chair. I won’t name names: they rarely if ever surface at 
RIPE meetings anyway.
