<br>
I understand the dilemma, and can suggest a partial solution. I’ve checked with staff and if there is sufficient desire we could arrange a meeting on Adobe Connect where members could ask the candidates some questions and engage in a bit of discussion. I would think this could be particularly helpful with respect to the very competitive Asia Pacific slot, but also for the others as well.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, the timing is very bad at my end as I’ll be in London Thursday-Saturday for the High Level Panel, traveling and busy Sunday, Zurich Monday giving a final exam. So basically, I could do this Wednesday 11th (rather soon) Saturday 14th late afternoon from my hotel, or Tuesday 17th (last minute). Or you could do it without me some other time...<br>
<br>
Sorry about the constraints. Would the candidates be interested and available on any of those days? Members?<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
<br>
Bill<br>
