[Epdp-dt] FW: [council] ePDP DT / Leadership Issues

[Marika Konings]

Moving this conversation to the draft team list. Note that the WG Guidelines state the following:


“Unless a Chair has already been named by the Chartering Organization, normally a Chair will be selected at the first meeting of the WG. Until that time, the Chartering Organization’s liaison may fulfill the role of interim Chair”.



So the Council has the ability to appoint a chair should it want to, although the standing practice for PDP WGs has been for the WG to select its own leadership. FWIW, the appointment of a chair by the chartering organization has been used for recent CCWGs (e.g. CWG-Stewardship, CCWG-Accountability and new gTLD Auction Proceeds CCWG).



I hope this is helpful background information.



Best regards,



Marika

Subject: [council] ePDP DT / Leadership Issues

I think we have at least two questions to address:


  1.   What is the ideal configuration of the leadership team for an EPDP?

  *   1 chair
  *   2 or more co-chairs
  *   1 chair and 1 or more vice-chairs
  *   Some other model


  1.   Depending on the answer to the above, who should be nominated for leadership and what is that process?  Historically, WG’s select their own leadership and that is ratified by the Council.  Is that the same plan for the ePDP?

Let’s discuss.

PS: From the chat on today’s call I saw (and want to capture for your discussion):

Ayden Ferdeline: Chair - Thomas Rickert

Best,
Paul
