One suggested the need for alternative candidates with, it was argued, deeper networks to draw on, but no such candidate was identified or came forward subsequently.  So I propose we just do it and notify ICANN/

A complexity here—if we are going to reboot some sort of NCUC PC, I would argue that it's members should serve on the NCSG PC for coordination.  So we have to select now based on an abstraction re: UC's future.

This would get her shifted from the admin chair stuff to more substantive policy, where I think she's eager to engage more.  There are newer folks I'd like to work in over time, but in this instance I think continuity, clue fulness and demonstrated commitment should count.
