I too see no reason for concern. If Jeff can't carry workload, I am sure he 
will ack/and take steps accordingly. 

I have a lot of respect for Jeff and his commitment and integrity, and 
responsibility. 

But I also object to starting over on chair. Let's finish the work with a 
conaiatent chair who has stated willingness and demonstrated his skills and 
capability and commitment to fulfilling the ToR....

Thanks Avri.  I understand your concern and if those on the PPSC and PDP-WT
or the Council believe that I will not be able to do both, I will step down
as Chair of both the SC and WT.  

I will note, however, that there is no bylaw or operational procedure that
bars a council member from serving as the chair of a working group and I am
fine with continuing to serve as well.

That said, I am happy to follow the will of the Council and the policy
teams.

hi,

As I have done before in other circumstances, I question the legitimacy of
having a chair for the PPSC  or the PDP WT who has ascended to the GNSO
council and is one of its vice-chairs    I believe that the influence a
council member, who is in the position of approving or disapproving the work
of PPSC and its WTs is not consistent with also being a Chair of either the
PPSC or of a WT.

This is a personal question at this point, but I will be forwarding this
note to the NCSG  to seek their advice on the issue.

thanks
