[governance] WG on enhanced cooperation

[José Félix Arias Ynche]

Estoy de acuerdo en que lo mejor sería iniciar el NomCom, para el proceso
de selección inmediata.  Y no se tenga que pedir una nueva lista, se puede
iniciar con los que ya se ofrecieron.

La  pregunta es; si se puede legítimamente abreviar este proceso, de pedir
al coordinador responsable que envié por correo electrónico a todos los que
se ofrecieron para la última vez y preguntarles si están todavía dispuestos
a servir.

La carta no parece prohibir tal cosa.
