Dear Andres,

Perhaps you are missing the point a bit, I am not questioning your
leadership or your encouragement of collaborative dialogue. The fact that we
can have this discussion is a celebration of my acknowledgement of your apt
leadership and fair views.

Also, the aim was not that there be a directed vote. But despite there being
no directed vote and no real obligation forced upon LACRALO representatives
to vote for our preference, by your position in principle you should
consider and give weight to our perspective. Please understand the flaw is
not personal, but in the process to ensure that LACRALO is truly
representative. If LACRALO has representatives-- then certainly these
representatives should act and try to encapsulate these two perspectives as
best as possible, instead of just one perspective. We are not asking for
favouritism, but rather the balance that you acknowledge should exist in
LACRALO!

The other ALSes have made their decision on criteria that we do not accept
(and some have chosen not to read the documentation before them), our aim is
to highlight that there are two diverging opinions on the list as to who
should be the best candidate. We feel that Alan is the better candidate to
represent us at the Board level because of his detailed responses, his vast
knowledge of the issues and versatility.

I cherish the fact that there is often disagreement in LACRALO, because in
thrashing out ideas we are able to become stronger and more knowledgeable.
However, it is the underlying duty of LACRALO's representatives to ensure
that where there is no consensus, all sides are represented as best as
possible. I do feel like the Caribbean ALSes are at times ignored and
sidelined, and it is disheartening to continue to contribute to topics and
the list when this occurs.

Fortunately, we do have the second voting round before us and it falls
squarely on your shoulders to ensure that this balance is actually upheld
and that our inclusion and perspective are recognised. To do otherwise would
only add insult to injury and strengthen the perception that the list is not
inclusionary of all LACRALO.

Regards
