[Eg-oversight-board] Officer Elections next week

Grace,

My apologies, but I have a couple of questions. Though, I should be available by email next week.

Since my term is ending, it is OK for me to vote on the future officers or do I need abstain?

Instead of nominating specific persons for the officer positions, I guess that you will load all the members whose terms are not expiring for the chair position? Then everyone except the chair-elect for the vice chair vote?

Thanks,
Yamil

Nominations for Vice-Chair will be Tuesday with voting Wednesday, and nominations for Secretary will be Wednesday with voting on Thursday.  This will require the EOB to be available to check email several times per day Monday-Thursday next week.  Will this be problematic for anyone?

The position is not included with the officer structure - it is, however, something that the SFC requires, one official point of contact for our project.  In the past the role has been assigned to officers and non-officers pretty much equally.  But since this is not an officer position in and of itself, I believe we can wait and assign/elect the rep at the Evergreen conference meeting.  Thoughts?
