I have recently been told about the "a team of one" concept...
[Citation needed.] What has the WG(s) in question said or done about that?
Different context, not RIPE or RIPE NCC related.
But theoretically, if the WG is only the Chair(s), it's still a WG.
There should of course be a healthy replacement of WG leadership: enough to
ensure things don?t get stale
Depends on "things". In some cases stale is certainly a "feature".
[Citation needed.] What have you or the rest of the WG done about that? Has the
WG put forward new candidates? Did you or others who share your view volunteer?
If i understand the Chair role correctly, the Chair steers the WG, and
maintains a neutral position. At least that's what i've seen from most of
the RIPE WG Chairs over the years.
Not everybody plays by "knowing when to step down"...
[Citation needed.] Have you ever suggested to someone they've been around for
too long and should step down? What was their response? Did you have those
conversations with the WG?s other co-chairs (or the RIPE Chair)? What was their
response?
No.
Saying "Not everybody plays by knowing when to step down? is all very well. It
would help a lot if could you please cite actual examples instead of vague
perceptions.
For me, it's not a vague perception, it's a fact.
The sentence starts with "Not everybody".
But you also get the other way around: the person thinks it's time to step
down, and people around him/her think otherwise.
Let?s have a clear understanding of the problem statement before deciding the
solutions.
Ahhhh, again, it loops onto "There's no problem statement!".
Can you share the full flowchart? :)

Carlos
