[cooperation-wg] Chairs of this wg

Hi all,

To be very clear --* this is not an election*. While it's great to see the
open and vocal support and we will certainly weigh this in decision-making,
I want to make that clear. Discussion and providing rationale for your
support for a given candidate (or otherwise) would be appreciated.

To clarify as well -- we are also looking for more than one additional
co-chair. Three is the number that seems healthy and productive to me, but
I'm open to suggestions from the community.

Thanks,
Meredith
