| 1 | 39-45 | Lines 41-42 state that candidates will be vetted. By whom? And using what criteria? If the vetting is that the eduGAIN Secretariat will ensure the slate is diverse & representative (as in lines 44-45) then I propose that the current lines 39-45 be replaced with: "Requests for nominations to the eduGAIN Steering Committee will be initiated by the Secretariat. Candidates can be self nominated, nominated by their organisation or by another organisation including current eduGAIN Service Team members. The eduGAIN Secretariat will ensure that the slate of nominees is diverse and representative of the eduGAIN community. A list of proposed nominees will then be circulated to the General Assembly." | Alex Stuart/Jisc | ||
| 2 | 4 | 'eduGAIN Service Owner': This role/function is not mentioned in the Constitution. Is that intentional? | Wolfgang Pempe / DFN |
