[ripe-chair-discuss] Status of RIPE Chair discussion?

Job, clearly the question is addressed to you but as this is a public list,
I will take the liberty of responding to it from my point of view.

No but I have been reading the following in this thread:

"I think you've been in close proximity to ICANN folk for far too long."
"wanna-be lawyers"
"amateur lawyers" , who apparently,
"are likely to kill RIPE in the long term if left totally unchecked."

The last one was in your own mail Daniel and bears an accusation as well as
a demeaning character.
It is unclear who it refers to and what it means in the context of this
discussion.
It brings obscure unnecessary negativity to the discussion even if you may
have had no real intention behind to do so initially.

This thread will only improve once it switches from discussing people
(their jobs, affiliations and backgrounds etc) to discussing ideas and
concepts with substance respectfully.

Kind regards
