Before and during RIPE 80 there were calls for the NomCom to halt the
process and calls to re-open the call for nominations. See the archives
of the ripe-chair-discuss and ripe mailing lists.

The NomCom has listened carefully to these discussions and decided in
its 5th meeting to postpone candidate selection and seek community
support for continuing the process before proceeding. After further
consultation within the NomCom I have published this request via this
mailing list on 25 May.

The NomCom pondered the whole community discussion again in its 6th
meeting and decided unanimously to continue with candidate selection at
the next meeting.
Last Friday the NomCom has re-affirmed this decision at its 7th meeting
and started with candidate selection.

The NomCom stresses that it has carefully addressed all suggestions made
during the discussions and that it has not taken its decisions lightly
or without regard to what has been said. We considered *all* input as
well as the current circumstances and concluded that there is no
consensus in the community to deviate pragmatically from the agreed
process as it is codified in ripe-727 and ripe-728.

Now that we have made the decision according to our mandate and the
process agreed by the community before, we ask the community to unite
and support us in our effort.

Daniel Karrenberg
Chair
RIPE 2020 NomCom
