Evan -
<div class="">I would suggest you include language or a FAQ that
expresses this sentiment:</div>

<div>By reading the draft charter, I had no idea this was the
goal. The reason I would not want a strict rule is because I
totally agree with this:</div>
<br class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div class="">
<div dir="ltr" class="">
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:trebuchet
ms,sans-serif">To do this we need to trust the Chapter
delegates themselves to determine how best to do this
each year from among the available candidates. </div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>I would not want to dictate to any particular chapter how
to select its delegate, but I do like the theory behind
this:</div>
<br class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div class="">
<div dir="ltr" class="">
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:trebuchet
ms,sans-serif">Because of this, we deliberately chose
to require all leaders to be re-elected every year,
to ensure maximum accountability and to enable
opportunity for newcomers.</div>
</div>
</div>

<div class="">My concern is that chapters will most likely be
inclined to send their best and most experienced member to be
their delegate to the council. My question is, how do we get
across to chapters that is not necessarily in their best
interest? You might say that we all are aware of this from being
on this list. But, what about five years from now when we have
forgotten and there is a new cadre to chapter leaders?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">One option would be to say that a chapter may not
select any officer to be a delegate. The presumption here is the
chapter would be selecting its best and most seasoned members
for leadership, leaving open the delegate slot for an
up-and-comming individual. Moreover, that new person may be able
to benefit the most from networking and exposure to what the
Internet Society Chapter Support team has to offer. Conversely,
if a chapter has an individual who is “president for life,” this
would give someone else the opportunity to be involved with the
greater Internet Society community.</div>
