First, congratulations to the whole people around EURALO, not only those
who are elected, but participated, and maybe frustrated to some extent,
but as someone wrote, you now have the outcome.

I was elected as an ALAC from AP RALO in March before Lisbon meeting,
from "interim" to more "legitimate" member, and now that we lost
Vittorio, Wendy and kind of myself are only two "incumbents" squatting
on ALAC.

I am quite aware of this and looking for good rationale and also good
exit. My rationale has been the quick and many turnovers, so many
ALAC members have changed, giving some sort of instability, which
is not all bad, but we at APRALO thought maintaining some stability
be better. I am bit concerned that we may lose some "corporate
memory" and that is another reason for me to stay. Given the ALAC
review is coming, I think however radical we may try to change ALAC,
and I am one of them to hope that to happen, I still like to share
some lessons from the past, in order not to reinvent the wheels.

Well, in any case, Thanks Vittorio for your many years of service
especially as the first Chair, and for your hard work.

We have a lot of homeworks, indeed.
