the sooner the better, but people shouldn't feel we are hijacking the
process. I hope using the "leftover" candidates will
help. <br><br>

be<br>
prepared to quickly replace such members - possibly before Cape Town -
and<br>
perhaps propose a process.<br><br>
Assuming that it is the Board, not the NomCom, that has the power to
replace<br>
these members, I would suggest to the Board to adopt the following
process:<br>
- the ALAC issues a call for nominations to the At Large Structures and
the<br>
general public (2 weeks)<br>
- the NomCom forwards this call to their ALAC applicants from this
year's<br>
round<br>
- all nominations coming from either of the two channels are forwarded
to<br>
the Board<br>
- the Board decides how to handle them (i.e. with a subcommittee, or with
a<br>
joint Board-ALAC subcommittee, or by forwarding them to the NomCom)<br>
- the appointments are decided<br><br>
What do you think? I'd like to start moving on this.<br>
