If it is indeed a problem (and I am not making a case for or against), then we should be talking about changing the rules that are based on citizenship. In this particular case , would have preferred if the dialogue was carried out on the world-wide list so that those people involved could also have a say. Alan At 07/09/2008 11:18 AM, you wrote:
Robert,
While it's wonderful that you know and like both candidates, we are trying to discuss a very real issue -- residency requirements. Out of the 27 candidates that hailed from Europe the NomCom chose a candidate to represent Europe that works and resides in Japan. I consider that to be a poor decision, and whether you like Adam or not has no bearing on whether the process needs to be reformed.

So i'd rather be constructive - congratulations are in order to Adam & Allan! As well, thanks to the At-Large reps on the nomcom for the hard work and many hours involved in the process.
regards
Robert
