All, as nominations start to come, personally I would try to see whether we can agree on a good mix of people that can make everyone happy and confident in the process. For what regards the EURALO Board, I would recommend that the people who were most active in the discussions in the last year volunteer to be part of it. I would like to have one person per each macro-region of Europe (Northern, Western, Central, Southern and Eastern) plus, for regions that have been very active such as Germany and Benelux, perhaps one more, so to have a Board of 6-7 members. Also for ALAC members, I think that a good complement to Annette would be someone from Northern/Western Europe and someone from Eastern Europe, possibly of different gender. Southern Europe has already been well represented in the At Large, so I think that we should pass the turn. What would you think of this? Thanks, P.S. For what regards myself, as I repeatedly said, I do not want to continue as an ALAC member, not because I wouldn't like to continue, but because I think that after four years it's time that new people have a chance to serve. On the other hand, I'd be happy to serve in the EURALO Board if this is considered useful - I have been trying to work for compromise and practical advances on the hot issues such as individual membership and incorporation, and I hope that I could continue to do so and help the process. -- vb.
