At the moment, the ISOC President cannot appoint a chair because he cannot know who is eligible. So we are in a vacuum until the IESG exercises its judgement.

That wouldn't completely immunise against an appeal but would make an appeal highly unlikely to succeed. Certainly if we can get a BCP out very quickly that would do fine, but it would have to be a very minimal BCP whose 4 week last call starts in the next week or two. Brian
