I am also sure that her intention was to be constructive; I wanted to make sure that everyone was aware that the enthusiasm for moving forward needed to be channeled a bit differently in order to avoid a conflict with the Bylaws ;) On 26/05/07, karen banks <karenb@gn.apc.org> wrote:

hi everyone

first, can i add my (belated) thanks to all and congratulations to the board members.. four of us (jeanette, wolf, bill and myself) were in geneva last week for the WSIS/IGF meetings..

Per Clause 9.4 of the Bylaws of the EURALO, it is for the board members to elect the Chair and Vice-Chair, so I'm afraid that this proposal is not in order. as a relative newcomer to the space, i appreciate the procedures being clarified.. thanks nick

but, i also appreciate annette's evident enthusiasm and wishing us now to move forward - and i imagine that was the spirit of her proposal..

all, now that we have a board we should clarify who becomes the chair.

looking at the ranking of the board members jeanette and wolf are predestinated to take the responsibility of the euralo chair. as jeanette already indicated that she would be willing to do some work but not take the full responsibility as chair, i think it would be great if wolf would be willing to serve as chair.

if wolf accepts and there are no objections until friday - we actually would have finished our procedural issues ;-)

best annette
