[ALAC] IMPORTANT: Call for Nominations for ALAC Chair

Thu Aug 21 23:54:43 UTC 2014

I would (me too I am not an ALAC member) to add my voice to those of other RALO chairs who have supported Olivier's nomination of Alan as the next ALAC Chair and Olivier in function as a Vice-Chair. 

Their dedication to the community is an example for us all.

Hello,

as a non ALAC member, I have no say in this respect. But I fully support Olivier's nomination of Alan as the next ALAC Chair while keeping Olivier in function as a Vice-Chair. I really think both of them have proofed over many years with much dedication, insight and excellence that they can lead ALAC and the At-Large community to a next level.

Just my two cents 
with best regards,
Wolf
