Call for RIPE DNS Working Group Chair
------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with the chair selection process we announce that one of
our co-chairs (Doris Hauser) is stepping down after the upcoming RIPE
Meeting (RIPE 90, near Lisbon) for personal reasons and we would like to
invite volunteers, or nominations for someone to become a co-chair of
the DNS working group.
Anyone may volunteer, and anyone may be nominated by someone else (we
will check with the person for acceptance).
To do this, please send a mail to <dns-wg-chairs AT ripe.net> before end
of Thursday 23 April 2025 (UTC). Again, please DO NOT send your
volunteer/nomination to the DNS WG mailing but rather the dns-wg-chairs
mail alias.
It would be helpful for candidates to give some words as to why they
think they ought to be a co-chair, what new ideas, or improvements they
might bring, and so on.
We will publish the list of volunteers, along with anything the
volunteers wish to include with their nomination, to this mailing list
on Friday 24 April 2025. Discussion and support (or opposition) for each
candidate can then be offered on the list.
At the DNS working group session at RIPE 90, Moritz, Willem and Doris
hope to announce consensus based on the mailing list discussion.
