Hi Roger, 

Thank you for your constructive comment. 

To be clear, we made the announcement for candidates before this meeting. And, candidates have come forward (and still can). I think we can discuss what we'd like these people to do or not do, but I don't think it's productive to walk back the process to review a conversation we could be having in parallel. 

Thanks,
Meredith

I don't disagree on the dates, but isn't it strange to have people
come forward BEFORE we discuss what we want from them?

Suggest we rather start now on figuring out what we want and possible
candidates can announce themself over the next few weeks so by around
17.June we have a good idea of who are interested, and what we expect
from them.
