Thank you Mwendwa. In fact, elections could happen. However, this time, we did not have to vote as there were no more than one nomination per position. I guess we have reached a consensus as the nominated candidates are all recognized as excellent! I hope this helps.

I really appreciate your comment. Can you elaborate more and suggest a better process?
This voluntary positions are challenging, time consuming, and sometimes even tiring. They can almost feel like a second, full-time job. In that regard, I would like to thank anybody who offers his time to serve us.
It's understandable that people dislike losing, but we should at least ensure in future rounds, we have more competition. Elections are generally considered the key to representative democracy. Probably there is a way we can foster an environment where competition is encouraged, even embraced. Your views on this are also welcomed.
But on the other hand, in this round, we have an advantage, we have selected people we have interacted with, and we know they will deliver on behalf of the African Internet community.
