I would like to nominate Steven Coates for Co-Chair . Steven is very active in the Non-Contracted party house and has a very good knowledge of the process. He is an excellent leader and is very well organized. He also brings a "fresh perspective" into the group . We really need fresh and enthusiastic volunteers here and Steven as a co-chair would be an excellent addition. Ken Stubbs On 2/22/16 11:20, Jeff Neuman via Gnso-newgtld-wg wrote:
Glad to work with Avri as a co-chair. Her experience and lessons learned from the last round is extremely valuable.
I also think with the amount of work that there will be for our group, there will likely be work stream leaders for each of the at least 5 work streams identified in the charter. So, there is plenty of opportunity for a number of other people to actively participate as well in leadership roles. I participated mostly as an observer in the CCWG-ACCT group and think there are a lot of good practices from that group that can and should be carried forward, including the spreading out of work to a variety of different people on this diverse set of issues.
I look forward to speaking with everyone in a few hours.
