I support Robert Elz taking on the role of TZ Coordinator until Robert resigns from that role or the TZ mailing list reaches consensus on a new TZ Coordinator.
Is anyone opposed?
If anyone does want to oppose Robert Elz being TZ Coordinator, this is your last call - please speak up in the next day or so.
It's clear to me that there is a consensus on the TZ list in favour of Robert Elz being TZ Coordinator for the time being. I counted about 15 supporters, 3 concurring (no objection), but most importantly 0 against, and no unresolved concerns that I recall.
Thanks for your comments. I see no need for any more support.
Looking at section 4 of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-lear-iana-timezone-database/ it looks like the next step is somebody tells the IESG that the TZ mailing list has reached a consensus that Robert Elz should be TZ Coordinator, then IESG should "confirm" that.
Any volunteers for communicating with IESG?
As IETF Trust Chair, I would be glad to do that. Generally, the IESG confirms things in their telechats, which happen on Thursdays. So, this may well take 1 or (my guess) 2 weeks to get on the agenda and get through. If that is a problem, it would be good to know that now. Regards Marshall Eubanks
My goal here is to try using the process in the I-D and see if we can get that notion of the TZ Coordinator aligned with reality (Robert Elz has been acting like TZ Coordinator for a few weeks, which is a very good thing).
For me it is partly as a "dot the I's" exercise, and partly to test the I-D and get a little experience in using it.
