W3C BPMLOD - changes in the panel of chairs

Dear BPMLOD members,

Following my previous announcement of a re-starting of our activities (see
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-bpmlod/2022Dec/0000.html), this
email is to propose some changes in the panel of chairs. I got in touch
with the other co-chairs: José Labra and John McCrae, and they confirmed
that they won't be much involved in the coordination of the group's
activities in this new phase just started. Therefore, they are OK with the
idea of being replaced by other participants.

In this regard, the following colleagues volunteered to act as chairs of
BPMLOD during the following months, substituting José and John. The three
of them are working group leaders in the NexusLinguarum Action and will be
heavily involved in the preparation of the updated and new guidelines and
best practices for multilingual linked data:
* Dr Andon TCHECHMEDJIEV (IMT Mines Alès, France)
* Dr Milan DOJCHINOVSKI (Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech
Republic)
* Dr Anas Fahad KHAN (Istituto della Linguistica Computazionale, Italy)

Actually, we do not have an explicit protocol for chair selection (W3C is
quite open about this), but following our previous (and others')
experiences, the procedure could be as simple as calling for a vote during
our next meeting to confirm/reject the candidates. If there is any other
volunteer, please drop me an email within one week so we can consider their
candidacy as well.

As for the next meeting, I think we should meet in mid January to follow up
on our activities. I'll circulate a doodle poll in a separate email.

Best regards, Merry Christmas, and happy New Year!

Jorge
