While I do not agree with all the points Carlos has made, I think content of his mail was totally to the point, well expressed, and perfectly within scope of this mailing list and the discussion point in hand. Lets focus on the ideas instead of trying to police the discussions. Everything can be discussed at once. HPH and the community has enough maturity to read them all and process them all together. No need for categorisation or some kind of filtering. The scope of the discussion list is clear; we are discussing a selection process for RIPE Chair position. Elections can be used as a form of a selection process and supporters of that should not be put under any kind of pressure or impression that they cannot raise their views already now. Kind regards Filiz > > Cheers, > Carlos >
