Re: [GNA-G All] Update on GNA-G Leadership

Dear Members of the GNA-G Community: At the GNA-G meeting in Tallinn, in June of this year, there was discussion about the structure of the leadership of the GNA-G moving forward. Initially, there were three co-chairs, i.e. Erik-Jan Bos, David Wilde, and Dale Finkelson. These were co-chairs of the GNA or the GLIF prior to the merger of the two on 1 July 2019. Also during Tallinn, we were happy that Jim Ghadbane volunteered to act as the Executive Liaison for GNA-G. While having the initial three co-chairs proved useful as an initial structure at the outset of the GNA-G meeting in Tallinn, it also became clear that this arrangement was not the best way for moving forward. As a result of suggestions heard at the Tallinn meeting, a call went out to the GNA-G Community for individuals who would be interested in joining the GNA-G Leadership Team in setting the directions and doing oversight of the GNA-G. We are now pleased to announce that three individuals did step up to this challenge and have joined the three initial co-chairs to form a six-member Leadership Team. We hereby ask you all to welcome Harvey Newman from the California Institute of Technology, Gerben van Malenstein from SURF, and Buseung Cho from KREONET/KISTI in their new roles as members of the GNA-G Leadership Team. Thank you and kind regards, David, Dale, and Erik-Jan. _______________________________________________ All mailing list All(a)lists.gna-g.net https://lists.nordu.net/listinfo/all
