Here is formal text to support Nii's suggestion. Note that it
considerably simplifies the charter, because the Ad Com members are on
a more equal footing, and alternates are always available:
Section IV(F), "Alternates", becomes
F. ** Alternates
While it is anticipated that Names Council representatives will
manage the many tasks of Names Council representation, Constituency
management and DNSO working group participation, it is also
recognized that participation in the many international meetings,
international conference calls, and other Names Council duties may
from time to time require a sharing of time and costs with an
Alternate.
In such a case the first choice for alternate shall be the
Administrative Committee member who was the person with the fourth
highest number of votes from a different geographic region than the
3 Names Council Representatives. Should that person decline, or
otherwise not be able to perform the task, the Administrative
Committee member who was the person with the fifth highest number of
votes from a different geographic region than the 3 Names Council
Representatives shall serve.
Section G is greatly simplified, since Ad Com members are all on a more
equal footing, alternates are always available and we need not
distinguish between Ad Com members who are NC reps, and those who are
not (this is all of section G):
G. Resignation or Withdrawal
Should an Administrative Committee member withdraw, resign or
otherwise relinquish his/her position prior to the end of his/her
term, the Geographic region of the Administrative Committee member
shall be asked to hold new elections for this position. Such
elected replacements shall only fill out the remaining term of the
departing member. The Geographic region may elect to not hold an
election, if they deem there is insufficient time before the next
full election.
