Dear colleagues,
I have reviewed the list materials and all the materials provided to me as part of the objection as well as the views Rich has expressed. I conclude that for this current purpose, Rich should proceed as he, disqualify the candidate that was selected and move to his next choice. Note that this does not entail that I agree or disagree with the objection as made. I will have more to say in my report on this event; according to the RFC, that is delivered to the community as part of the chair's report at the end.
Best regards,
A

Hi everyone,
I write in my capacity as Internet Society President, because an objection to the seating of certain possible Voting Volunteers has been filed with me. Under the procedures outlined in BCP 10 I am to appoint an arbiter (which might be me) to investigate and make a determination of how to resolve the dispute.
I have some other pressing matters that are taking my attention; also I have not, I must admit, been following this issue as closely as I’m sure many of you have been. I appreciate the urgency of taking a decision as quickly as possible, the importance also of following the procedure, and the importance of both the portions of nomcom operations that must remain secret and those that must be publicly observable. I will endeavour to render a proper result with alacrity.
Best regards,
A

FYI. I will not name the person, they can self-identify if they wish.
At this point, it is probably best for me to not comment publicly on the matter under appeal unless Andrew or his delegate asks me.

Looking at https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8713.html#section-4.17
“The Chair has 48 hours to review the challenge and offer a resolution to the member. If the resolution is not accepted by the member, that member may report the challenge according to the dispute resolution process stated elsewhere in this document.”
My proposed resolution is to use the existing list and seeds and to pick the next candidate. Since that is what you are objecting to, I assume you will not find that acceptable, so your next step is to contact the ISOC president, as outlined in https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8713.html#name-dispute-resolution-process

I object to "go down the list".
