[Cz-editcouncil] Call for the Nomination of the Chair!

[Dr.Supten Sarbadhikari]

Dear Council members,
As per rules:
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Editorial_Council_Resolution_0007#V._Selection_of_the_Editorial_Council_Chair
.
"A new Chair should be selected each year from among the members who arrived
the previous year, that is, from among those Council members who have been
on the Council for one year."
So, the eligible candidates for April 2009 - March 2010 can be only either
from:
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Category:Editor_members_starting_a_2008_term
    * User:Anthony Argyriou
    * User:Howard C. Berkowitz
    * User:Milton Beychok
    * User:J. Noel Chiappa
    * User:Chris Day
    * User:John J. Dennehy
    * User:Russell D. Jones
    * User:Roger Lohmann
    * User:Simon Overduin
    * User:Stephen Saletta
    * User:David E. Volk
or from:
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Category:Author_members_starting_a_2008_term
    * User:Todd Coles
    * User:Steven Ferry
    * User:David L Green
    * User:Meg Ireland
    * User:Robert W King
    * User:Brian P. Long
Therefore, the Chair has to be s/elected from these 6+11=17 members only,
provided they fulfill the other criteria and are willing to spare their time
and efforts.
Nominations are now in order for the office of Chair. Please submit
nominations, either of yourself or of another person, *privately to me*, not
to this list.  Be sure to check the "to" line in your mail.
Nominations will be closed in exactly one week i.e., *Wednesday March 04,
2009 04:30 hrs. UTC*.
The duties of the Chair, a one-year position, are spelled out here:
  http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Editorial_Council_Rules_of_Procedure
While I hope the Editorial Council will be more active in 2009-10 than it
has been in the previous year, I have found that my chair-specific duties,
beyond my participation in the Council itself, did not occupy more than a
few minutes every week.
The person who is elected to Chair should be both committed to thsi project
and have adequate time, as the rules for the selection of the Chair state:
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Editorial_Council_Resolution_0007#V._Selection_of_the_Editorial_Council_Chair.

Unless you
   1. can attest in good conscience [in an e-mail to me] that you have
adequate time to execute the duties of Chair, and
   2. continue to support fully the fundamental policies of the Citizendium
community.
you aren't eligible.

With warmest regards
Supten
