Betreff: Re: [cooperation-wg] Chairs of this wg

Hello again, dear friends,

First, thank you so much for the lively discussion during today's Coop-WG. I genuinely appreciate your enthusiasm and care for this important process.

I have CCed all of the current candidates for co-chair here (I realize they are all also on the list, but as I hope many of you appreciate, I'm a fan of redundancy). To refresh your memory, these are:

  *   Achilleas Kemos -- from the European Commission's DGConnect. He was present today and gave an overview of his work and his interest during the working group.
  *   Collin Anderson -- Network Researcher and Internet Policy enthusist. He was also present today, and provided an overview.
  *   Analina Aspis -- Lawyer and Researcher at the Law Research Institute Ambrosio Gioja, specializing in ICT law. She was not present today, but you can read her overview posted in a previous Coop-WG thread
  *   Johan Helsingius -- (tentative nominee, as above). I'm not sure of his background or interest, but I invite him to disclose this in an email here.
I invite those on this list to suggest other nominees, to ask questions and make comments to the current nominees, and to continue the lively discussion.

As I mentioned, I will be receptive to suggestions and will work to distill the decisions of the community in a week's time, disclosing such in an email to this list. If there are those here who feel strongly that we should extend the process beyond a week, please speak up here. I am sensitive to the need for discussion, and don't want to rush anything. That said, before the next meeting I need a co-chair. This is the responsible move on my part, to ensure I'm not a single point of failure in the case that I change jobs, have the flu during a meeting, etc..

Best,
Meredith

The outreach bit has proved problematic in the past. I remember a group trying to talk to a MEP. The relationships that are not obvious to outsiders are not always obvious to insiders either!

On the other hand I appreciated the work of NCC in drafting a formal response, effectively on behalf of the WG, to a Commission proposal.

We need to talk more about this.The potential is there.

there may be room for both here.  The co-op WG has a mandate for outeach
outside the existing community, but the chair function needs to
understand what ripe/ripe ncc is and how it serves its community.  This
is not always obvious to outsiders (e.g. "ripe ncc is not the police", etc).
