If we have options 1 or 3, we are saying that the RIPE chair is a full-time position -- is that a statement we're all comfortable making? (Hans Petter, I would love to hear your view about how much time your responsibilities take, throughout the year) I think #1 would entail a large raising of RI

I too am inclined towards a variant of option 3. - option 1 to me is simply too much heavyweight structure for a single- person role. - option 2 I feel is exclusionary to otherwise well-matched candidates, and places the role at risk of capture by employer vested interests. On 02/20/18 06:25
