Thank you for this offer, Marie-laure. Let's see how this unfolds.

I would be willing to switch with Cintra and become NPOC alternate if there is no other primary representative volunteering for the position before the deadline expires. best, Marie-laure On Tue, Dec 17, 2013 at 5:24 PM, Ron Andruff <randruff@rnapartners.com <mailto:randruff@rnapartners.com> > wrote: Dear Cintra, Dear all, It occurs to me that one way to resolve the issue of Cintra being an alternate is for her constituency to determine if it might make sense to make her the primary representative rather than the alternate. I apologize for not knowing off the top of my head who the primary is (and unfortunately our Wiki page is not up to date regarding our current Committee members - Julie can you please organize the updates?). I thought that that might be a consideration to avoid having to get a waiver to our brand new Charter. That said, I do not want this message to discourage other primary representatives that may wish to throw their hats into the Vice Chair ring.

As there were no other volunteers Ron was affirmed as 2014 SCI Chair during the meeting on 17 December 2013. During that meeting the also SCI agreed that it was important to have a Vice-Chair. Cintra Sooknanan, Alternate NPOC Representative, volunteered for the position. Please let me know if anyone else wishes to volunteer or nominate someone to the position of Vice-Chair by Friday, 20 December COB. If there are no other volunteers for the position of Vice-Chair the SCI will ask for Cintra to be affirmed by its members and will request from the GNSO Council a exception to the SCI Charter allowing an Alternate Member to be a Vice-Chair.
