<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Dear Sala<br>
<br>
Let me first state that, as a fait accompli, I would like Fouad's
nomination to stand as I suspect that it is the IGC's </font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">wish </font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">(and I concur) that, although
there have been numerous procedural problems with this nomcom process,
it would not want its outcomes to be nullified. <br>
<br>
However, I am unable to agree with your judgement which summarily
disposes off one of most important institutions of the IGC - the
appeals committee. The judgement, in my view, is also unmaintainable
because it comes from an authority, an IGC co-coordinator, to check
whose possible abuse of power</font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> - whether deliberate or
inadvertent -</font><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> is one
of the most important task of the appeal's committee. Almost sounds
like a coup :). Well, only joking, in this instance.<br>
<br>
All IGC office bearers have stood in their office till replaced by new
ones. Coordinators have often taken decisions past their 2 year period,
till they are replaced by a new set. And appeals committees have also
previously continued in the same way, till a new one is appointed. This
is the IGC convention, and its practical need and importance should be
obvious. In the view, I think, your judgement disposing off the appeal
committee is wrong. And it is dangerous to the extent that we are right
now left with no appeals committee. <br>
<br>
An unsure and unclear nomcom with one of the two coordinator
incapacitated and no appeals committee looks like not a very good
situation for us to be....<br>
<br>
I would request you, and Izumi, to amend your judgement in this
respect. In my view the appeals committee exists as present, while
coordinators should start the process of selecting a new one at the
earliest. <br>
