Four good people - yet with quite different backgrounds and skills. It really shows the interest if the WG.

The former should have a wider set of contacts with the people and organisations we'd like to bring in to the WG as well as a better understanding of what goes on in government/regulatory circles. > > Perhaps others here could say which characteristics they want (or don't want) from the new co-chair? That would help Maria (and Patrik?) choose the candidiate most likely to get widest endorsement form the WG. I'm sure whoever gets chosen would of course get that endorsement. > > > > > End of cooperation-wg Digest, Vol 22, Issue 10 > ********************************************** -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
