When the previous person was sent, I seem to remember it being the result of a vote among Alan Greenberg, Robert Guerra and myself.
If there's no vote, why would we need to nominate? People could just submit their names to the non com committee, yes? Anyway, I will defer to others' take on ROP.
The region can only recommend who the ALAC should send on its behalf. ALAC can -- and has -- overruled regional advice. This is why the original choice was made between the three North American ALAC reps, In those early days the rest of ALAC had little to do besides defer to the joint decision of those three, Four years later the situation is not significantly different, though with time some of the people are known -- for better or worse -- to the rest of ALAC. - Evan
