Hello Torsten,

TB> Earlier elections just went forward with a nominated election commitee of
TB> the ftsc as I remember. This election commitee was deployed by the
TB> chairman of ftsc, not of the zcc.

That is incorrect.

Earlier elections just went on with sometimes rogue nominations ... certain individuals thought that a zonal balance was needed, others made believe they invented the fire, the wheel and the hot water and just deserved to be there.

As a result, historically there was trash in the FTSC.

There never was a nomination committee by the FTSC.

During the previous election in 2022 the ZCC took it upon itself to seek qualified candidates and established such a committee with good results.

Elections lately were run by the FTSC Administrator and not by a committee. Though in a distant past this was different.

Take care,
