Yes I understand that I am personally getting support and I very much  
appreciate that.

What concerns me is whether there is support for going into a period  
of transition that allows the IGC to step back and consider how it  
moves on.  I think that I am volunteering to facilitate that  
transition period.  And in suggesting that the co-coordinator  be  
picked as soon as we decide on our charter and method of working I am  
suggesting that this new person will be chosen (by some means yet to  
be agreed on) according to the needs of  decisions yet to be made.  I  
am afraid that if we pick 2 co-coordinators this month we will make  
it more difficult to make a transition to a new organizational model.

But I am accepting that I may be wrong and the IGC may not need to  
transition to a new model.  And if i am wrong about this, then I am  
obviously not the right person be a co-coordinator.

So, this is why I think we need to understand what the consensus of  
the IGC is.


thanks
a.
