The 2013/2014 had someone who had to be removed because they could not attend
any meetings, and were never able to organize themselves to attend calls.
I think that they weren't Elmer; my poor recollection is that a family member
got ill, and they simply couldn't do much other than their 9-5. I never met
this person, didn't know who they were.
The take home if that if one does select Elmer, and s/he sits on the beach
rather than coming to the nomcom meetings, the nomcom can boot them out. If
it happens early enough, the nomcom chair can replace them, or the nomcom can
operate with 9 rather than 10.
Allison has suggesting selecting 11 people, with the 11th being a
participating, but non-voting spare. I'm undecided if this would be a good
thing. In 2014/2015 I did select an 11th from the pool, and confirmed that
selection with others in case we needed someone else.
