[ALAC] CONSENSUS CALL // Re: [ALAC-Announce] Announcement of the kick off of the 2014 At-Large Board Director Selection Process

Mon Nov 18 18:31:19 UTC 2013

I share Rinalia's remarks about the need to circulate, sufficiently in advance, the information about the reference requirements.

Hi.

A comment.

I noted that the call for references will be made during the last week of
December with a 14 day deadline. People are generally out of office last
week of December and first week of January (not everyone of course, but it
will apply to some if not most). To help candidates and referees, it would
be important to flag the reference requirement early. Also, if there is a
particular format/form that the references should be submitted in, this
should be specified and circulated well in advance and preferably when the
formal announcement about the process is made to the public.
