[ripe-chair-discuss] RIPE Chair Job description

Thanks Mirjam. This helps. Glad to hear there was indeed a draft
document on this.

This draft addresses my comments about the responsibilities and the
scope of this position.
It also relates to the current "process" discussion with its content as:

"Term duration:

The duration of this role is five years after which the exiting Chair
may choose to place him/herself up for reelection in the pool of
qualifying candidates.
"

I have no objections to the 5 years term.
But we may need to consider the purpose of the "may" in this sentence,
"the exiting Chair may choose to place him/herself up for
reelection...", as we are discussing a process.

So with this discussion we may have the opportunity to both come up
with a process for an election and move this document from a Draft
state to a proper RIPE Document status.

Where will this discussion take place during the upcoming meeting next week?


Thank you
Filiz
