Clarification: Rereading the actual note I got from Jean-Jacques, I was not, in fact, asked to sign, because it seems to be a done deal, but to link to the letter from any further journalistic efforts on the subject. So I will do that. FWIW, I will also make the point, respectfully, that the letter doesn't go far enough. Beau -----Original Message-----

Though I agree in principle with Avri, I am also wondering if we should, indeed, sign this since it's there, and pursue other efforts for community involvement via other channels as well. I'm going to sign it because I was asked to do so in conjunction with something I wrote.

Having a quiet word with Sebastien might also help the cause.

Hi,

I do not think this goes far enough. It only asks for transparency. I think we should be asking for community participation on creating at least the short list.

Yes, this must be a Board led activity and a Board responsibility to ultimately choose, but there is no reason why the community can't be represented in the process. I think a nomcom-like process to help the Board selection process in coming up with the short list would be an appropriate approach.

I have asked to add my name to the signatories; I might also suggest that NARALO -- together or separately as individuals - may want to consider endorsement or co-signing.
