The chair is to administer the voting procedure (ha, ha -- to the extent the GA has one), and it is the taking of positions that led to the unseemly initial attacks on James Love and his motion. A chair is supposed to act in a neutral, unbiased, and objective manner, and asking what his position is only exacerbates the tendency of almost anyone in this mailing list who ever gets a title of any kind to act as though they had just been anointed as Emperor of the Internet.
