NomCom has Started Candidate Selection
[See https://blog.ripe-nomcom.org/nomcom-starts-candidate-selection/ for a version of this message with convenient links.] Before and during RIPE 80 there were calls for the NomCom to halt the process and calls to re-open the call for nominations. See the archives of the ripe-chair-discuss and ripe mailing lists. The NomCom has listened carefully to these discussions and decided in its 5th meeting to postpone candidate selection and seek community support for continuing the process before proceeding. After further consultation within the NomCom I have published this request via this mailing list on 25 May. The NomCom pondered the whole community discussion again in its 6th meeting and decided unanimously to continue with candidate selection at the next meeting. Last Friday the NomCom has re-affirmed this decision at its 7th meeting and started with candidate selection. The NomCom stresses that it has carefully addressed all suggestions made during the discussions and that it has not taken its decisions lightly or without regard to what has been said. We considered *all* input as well as the current circumstances and concluded that there is no consensus in the community to deviate pragmatically from the agreed process as it is codified in ripe-727 and ripe-728. Now that we have made the decision according to our mandate and the process agreed by the community before, we ask the community to unite and support us in our effort.

Daniel, NomCom, Thank you for moving forward. Thank you also for considering all input. It was a considerable amount of text, and some good things were said in it from both sides. I know that some members will be unhappy about the process, but hopefully less so with the actual outcome. This was a first run. They are never perfect. The good thing is that we did not cast our future in stone. There will be a next time, and we will learn from this first run, and discuss and improve for next time. And continously on from there. As we always do. If we human beings knew how to design perfect systems from the outset, the world would already be a perfect place. Alas ...
