Re: [rsab] RSAB Chair Selection Process

Thanks Cindy!

Just one comment: I’m find to hand over at 120 but we could also hand over right after the selection is done. Actually I don’t think there is a lot to handover, so anytime the new chair wants to start is fine! As such we can also decide this when the new chair selection is done.

Or, Cindy, do you think we need some kind of meeting to officially minute the chair selection? I would think just announcing it officially to the respective lists should enough?
