Colleagues,

The RIPE Programme Committee is responsible for recruiting and selecting
presentations for the RIPE Meeting Plenary sessions. As the term of two
RIPE PC members end, we are looking for new members in Spring 2024 who
will be elected by the RIPE community at RIPE 88.

There are currently two seats up for election to the RIPE PC. Please
send nominations, with a biography, statement of interest and
photograph, to pc [at] ripe [dot] net.

RIPE Meeting Programme Committee: Appointment, Roles and
Responsibilities - https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-763/ - 
provides more information about the composition and roles of the RIPE PC.

Nominations for the RIPE 88 PC elections can be sent in from today, Tuesday, 14
May, until Tuesday, 21 May, 15:30 CEST (UTC+2). Please include a recent
picture and short biography with your nomination. We will announce the
PC elections at the RIPE meeting opening sessions, but interested
parties can already nominate themselves.

If you are nominating someone else, please ensure that the person
concerned is willing to be nominated and is copied on emails sent to the
PC. The PC will attempt to confirm that nomination with the nominee
before proceeding.

We will close candidate nominations on Tuesday, 21 May at 15:30 CEST
(UTC+2) and publish the biographies on the RIPE Meeting web site.

The RIPE PC online voting system will be open from Tuesday, 21 May,
16:00 CEST (UTC+2) until Thursday, 23 May, 17:00 CEST (UTC+2), for
