[seedig] Announcing the results of the SEEDIG Executive Committee elections

[Kati Gevorgyan]

Dear Barbara and all,

Hope I can share my thoughts with you.J

As a SEEDIG community member, I was following the thread of the emails
regarding the election's results and doubts that were announced by several
members about election processes transparency. I also took part in the
voting process and have offered two nominations. As well as I am involved
in the SEEsummary Editorial team.
I just would like to express my gratitude to the Election Committee for
their work and patience. As well as I would like to emphasize that I was
really surprised that there could be any suspicious opinions in terms of
transparency. I did my best to look through all the details of ToR to be
well informed and couldn't find any violations.

I had a chance and a great honor to know and met members of Executive
committee: Sasho Dimitrijoski and Su Sonia Herring I met and had a
conversation in Georgia on Eurodig and in Barcelona, Canada on ICANN
meetings. As an ISOCAM and ISOC Armenian Chapter member  I'm always in
touch with Liana Galstyan and cooperate during IGFs and other forums.
I'm definitely sure they all are taking care of SEEDIG good reputation.

And the main thing I would like to say is my attitude to the work that
Sorina Teleanu, Chair Executive committee does for all community. I see how
much effort she put to establish and grow SEEDIG, so, she could never even
think to violate any point of ToR. She takes care of the rights of all
SEEDIG community so far and it is valuable. I understand it is teamwork,
but the leader determines a lot and of course, I don't want to offend
anyone.
I hope very much that the final conclusion regarding elections will be soon
and all the new members will help SEEDIG grow faster and I'm as a community
member always ready to input my efforts.

Thank you for your time.
