On the Nature of WG Chairs...

Brian, this is an excellent point. The perfect should
not be the enemy of the done, and we should understand that there are a
mix of qualities that can make for effective co-chairs, especially in the
Coop-WG. Discussion of what these qualities are is productive and welcome,
of course.
Best,
Meredith

I generally agree with you. But I think we need to discuss
"out-reach" more.
Representing the WG in other fora has proved problematic
in the past for obvious reasons.
I also tend to think that in any case "out-reach"
has too be something for the whole WG and not an additional task just for
the co-chairs.

Afternoon,
There has been a lot of discussion on list and at the session today about
the "job requirements" of a WG Co-Chair, especially in relation
to how well they know the community or how embedded they may be in it.
There is precedent for situations where a WG's Co-Chairs may be a mix of
people who are long standing members of the community and "subject
matter experts" who are more recently arrived. Of course those who
are more recently arrived do need to make a commitment to becoming suitably
involved, but we need to be careful about perfect being the enemy of done.
This is especially relevant, I think, in Co-operation where the whole point
is outreach and bringing more stakeholder groups into the community, or
at least into contact.
I make no comment about the current candidates for Co-Chair(s) of the WG,
it is more of a general observation that should be taken into account for
the discussion.
Thanks,
Brian
