Hi everyone

Some clarification please. Getting onto the ALAC is either by a RALO or
NomCom appointment. Sebastian, are you saying that the process for
appointment to the ALAC is flawed?  What are you disagreeing with? The
appointment process to the Leadership Team? This is as per our ROPs, and as
Alan said, was very heatedly debated during its formulation and then
endorsed by the ALAC at a time when you were on it.

For 2016 I understand there are 8 new positions on the ALAC which greatly
decreases the pool from which to choose experienced people for the
leadership team including the role of chair, but I do not believe it
decreases the quality of the applicants who remain and have been nominated
for the positions. And the final decision is made by the ALAC. I totally
support those who have been nominated because these are people who do the
hard yards across the whole gamut of ALAC responsibility. They deserve
their nominations which I believe have been made following due process.

Is this what the disagreement is about or are their other issues that I am
missing.
