[CBW_Exec] CBW Exec Nominations Form

[Kathleen Baca]

I, too, am good either way of selecting folks. I also like the form and think self-nomination would be fine, but I'm open to ways it could be tweaked to be more other-nominated friendly. Sorry, probably too much sugar and too many bumps in the road today.  kb

Subject: Re: [CBW_Exec] CBW Exec Nominations Form

One thought would be to borrow a page from WPA and CCCC and have EB sort the nominations and select a couple or more then put that up to CBW for vote. Or sort as EB and select as EB for now,  then open up wider for vote in future years.

I'm good either way-- or with another method. Just some thoughts drawn from how others do it.
