Folks,
At this point of time the Nomcom Chair Robert Guerra is basically
incommunicado, and that is expected to be largely the case until early next
week.
There is a lot that needs to be said and will be said when the Nomcom
reports then. There are some matters still to be resolved, but it was
thought rather than delay until all matters were cleared up to post the
list.
There will be more next week, so please be patient. But in the meantime I do
want to raise under a separate heading a particular more general matter
where the lists guidance would be useful
