Dear WG, As time flies while we are having fun, it is almost the time to re-do the chair dance again. And this time it will be my seat that is up for a re-election. If the WG is willing to put up with me as a co-chair, that I'm more than willing to go for another 2 years. If someone would like to become co-chair of AP-WG, it is possible to send Gert an email and we can have an actual election ... If we don't have multiple candidates 1 month before the next RIPE meeting in Berlin, it will be a step down - step up process. ( most likely ) ... It would be nice if we would get a (third?) young WG chair, someone who has been to a couple meetings, but doesn't fall in the category .. old-white male .. that has been longer around than the initial IPv4 runout .. Both Gert and myself tend to fall in that category .. or are getting close to it .. and a young padiwan that we can help settle into the WG collective would be highly appreciated. Kind regards, Erik Bais Co-chair for Address Policy WG - RIPE
