Helmut's rationale makes sense to me.

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
