While I have already indicated my support for Bill, may I also suggest,
as a tired multiple commentator on the Westlake GNSO review, that we
need to ensure a lively, diverse field of candidates for all these
positions, so that we are not fulfilling the criticism of not enough
rotation of senior (travel-funded) positions in our
constituency/stakeholder group. I suspect noone will want to run
against Bill, but we do need to have elections, not acclamations.
Kind regards,
Stephanie
