I am averse to adding any language that engenders regional balance for the Independent Director. The very essence of the Independent Seat, as captured in 13.4.ii of the bylaws (text below), is to accommodate other competences/dimensions/criteria other than regional balance. Adding any such language would make the Independent Director no different from Regional Directors, which would make it cease to be unique/relevant. However, given the realities on the ground -- like the scenario we had during out last election -- I would support making this an additional/optional criteria for NomCom to use when enough candidates have been presented. Bylaws extract: 13.4.ii: Two Directors elected ... upon the recommendation of the NomCom based on their competencies and not their regional representation. _______________________________________________ Community-Discuss mailing list Community-Discuss@afrinic.net https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo/community-discuss
