Following the feedback on the first proposal, Bijal and I have taken the process proposed in the DB WG and adopted it slightly. We therefor would like to have the following proposal updated and we will present this tomorrow. Under this the NCC-Service WG would select chairs according to the following principles 

o WG Chair term is two years
o One chair will stand down every year
o Maximum number of chairs is 3
o Call for interested parties is made on WG mailing list at yearly intervals
o Interested parties have 2 weeks to make their interest known on the mailing list
o NCC Services chair not up for election, issues a call for discussion. WG members express approval or otherwise of the presented candidates
o After two weeks the chair(s) declare consensus as they would do for a policy proposal	
o Appeal possible as per normal process

Let's discuss this tomorrow and also here on the list. Looking forward to the discussion! 

Regards,

Kurtis & Bijal
