I had a gent named Kris Seeburn contact me out of the blue two weeks ago and say he’d be willing to do the Membership team. I’d never heard of him, he’s not spoken on the members list, but he sent his CV, teaches at the University of Technology, Mauritius, ISOC member. Seems a nice and smart guy, precisely the sort of member someone should be in reaching to to get him engaged, but whether he’s well positioned to lead that task himself given lack of historical involvement I don’t know. I replied that normally the idea of the teams was that they’d be coordinated by members of the EC and comprise both EC members and regular members in order to create a bridge between the two and broaden engagement in the performance of key intraorganizational tasks. As EC members, the coordinators would be able to regularly report to the EC and ensure coordination; plus any significant ‘decisions’ should be done by the EC since they are the elected representatives. But as that’s not happening, maybe we should try a regular member, in which case I suppose I should do an open call for expressions of interest so nobody feels like this was handled in an insider sort of way. He was ok with that.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So: last call. Nobody on the EC can take this on? I should write to members and ask for EOIs?</div><br></blockquote></div><br><br><div>
