Hi Jim, Honestly I had a similar reaction when I first heard the suggestion - considering how quiet the AP-WG has been of late, do we really have the need for three chairs now?
As Gert wrote earlier, we have heard that some people want a systematic review of the AP documents performed to make them easier to follow and comprehend, and to improve consistency within and between the docs. Kurt highlighted some good examples on Tuesday. Such an activity would considerably increase the workload for the WG and the chair team. This, along with Gert leaving a sizable footprint (size 47) of knowledge and experience to fill, leaves me to believe that having three chairs for the upcoming period offers more benefit than harm.

I stand corrected Sander. No matter. My point remains. Why does the WG need a third co-chair?
