Dear Sala your points are well taken and understood, still weighting both arguments, personal grow and sustainability, I prefer the second.

Thanks Carlton, Cintra and Sandra for the comments. For the record, my suggesting "rotation" was not because I thought that the current ExCom was not performing, on the contrary, as I stated earlier and I will state again, they are all model ALAC members and have performed diligently, excellent and efficiently in the course of their duties.
My suggestions were premised on the basis of giving room to others to grow as well. On that note, I would like to withdraw my nomination for Yaovi as he feels that his colleague Tijani will represent AFRALO well as he already continues to do everywhere he goes.
I wish all the nominees well.
Best Regards, Sala

I am agains rotation just for the seek of rotation. It is good to reelect after a short period, to have a possibility to replace an insufficient officer, but if the performance of a committee is as excellent as of the one we have, I see no reason to replace anyone, if all are willing to continue.
I made some experiences in another international organisation, where a 'one year to lead' rule causes difficulties in sustainability.

+1 Not only have the immediate past excom members done a superb job... But it is important that we continue to have an excom comprised of very competent and experienced members given the current and ongoing environmental and strategic changes of ICANN.
I do agree that continuity and contingency planning is important for alac but to do so at this critical juncture will work to our disadvantage.

I share Evan's sentiments...and offer the same mea culpa.
Let us be clear here. I went to the Internal list before the call for nominations with my perspective on Olivier's leadership because I wished to offer a view - maybe a peculiar one - of what really makes the ALAC of notice in ICANN affairs.
I truly believe that it takes gumption, a certain diplomatic skill, will and the time to commit to do what Olivier has done. And all for free. IMHO, these are major reasons -vested in the Chair - for what we have collectively achieved. Yes, all others of the Ex-Com, and indeed some colleagues not of the Ex-Com, have played significant roles. Because once
