Dear Olivier,

All of the nominees are excellent and should continue in their roles,
particularly as there is no competition for each position.

It would be wonderful if nominees/liaisons who think that they may not
continue beyond the next term would also agree to train individuals
interested in serving as future liaisons to build capacity within the ALAC
and At-Large.  I understand that Cheryl Langdon Orr has agreed to mentor 2
individuals, who have volunteered to be trained as potential future
liaison/s for the ccNSO.  This is a great example to follow.

Best regards,

Rinalia
