[Chapter-delegates] The kinds of objections (was Re: Join our call to stop the sale of .org)

Please, go back to the recordings or to the transcript if you are
interested in what I *actually* said ;-) I did not express any opinion
on whether the current model is "right" or wrong. I just explained
what the current model looks like.

What I said is that the governance of ISOC is defined in the bylaws
and was agreed with the community. There is a board of trustees, who
is elected or selected by chapters, orgs, and the IETF. I am not sure
whether or not you consider that model to be a multistakeholder model.

In any case, we can certainly discuss changes to the governance model
at some point. However, we should keep those more-general discussions
separate from the current discussions about PIR. Also, those
discussions need to involve the whole community. For instance, last
time the governance was changed, the org members agreed to reduce the
number of trustees they could appoint (from six to four) so that
chapters could also appoint the same number of trustees (four).

In addition, as I also mentioned in the call, lately I have been
discussing with the chairs of the OMAC and of the ChAC how to get the
community more involved in the Nomcom process by having the ACs be,
in turn, more involved in looking for volunteers to serve in the
Nomcom every year.

Cheers,

Gonzalo
