Do you know what any of those criteria are? The voted members also have certain expertise and skill-sets, and then they go through a voting process. > > The chapter-selected seats...nobody knows what criteria are being used, > what specific expertise is being sought, what skill-set is being selected > for.

Beyond that, the chapter elected members, give their presentation, are nominated by a chapter, and most of their expertise, are known to the individuals voting for them. This seems similar to community elected members. I can not speak about the need for privacy, ideally as much as can be public, should be. I can understand requests to have certain amount of information made public, but there also needs to be a safe place to discuss these issues.
