[gnso-rds-pdp-wg] Please participate - poll on RDS PDP WG leadership team characteristics

[Sana Ali]

Dear Stephanie,

I’ll respectfully disagree with you here.

Experience should certainly be a matter of importance when determining who should be in leadership roles, but to suggest it should also be required for something as simple as voting on who should be in those roles, based on pretty straightforward and comprehensible principles, I find a bit dangerous. It inhibits participation based on…prior participation, which can become a slippery slope.

And from following the discussion, as a newcomer, I have at least picked up on the fact that even more experienced members of this group seem in no way unanimous on what should be the key characteristics of the team.

My two cents (with full disclosure that these are indeed rather newly-minted pennies)
