I vote: H > ABG > CDE > F In this case, I want to give a rationale. While Sean's term ends this year, no one but Sean volunteered to take the chair position yet and I'd rather not volunteer myself. It also is customary to not become a chair quickly after joining the committee. So at this time, continuing with Sean seems like the best option to me though I'd prefer an earlier handover over choosing a chair when Sean's membership expires. I suggest raising another vote around August. Last but not least, I want to thank Sean for having served as chair and taking on the relevant bureaucracy. Helmut
