Re: DISCUSSION: rejecting candidates

[Thomas Narten <narten@us.ibm.com>]

I think the issue is not whether the confirming body can reject a
candidate, its on what grounds.

Currently, there is little wording in 2727 on the reasons. A
reasonable intepretation is that the confirming body can reject a
candidate for whatever reason it chooses. I believe Brian is arguing
that this is the right intent.

I think that Dave is asserting it shouldn't have a blank check, but
should  only be able to reject in more narrow circumstances. E.g.,
process failure within the  nomcom.

I think it would be good to clarify the wording here, so that should a
confirming body decide to question the choice of a candidate or reject
one, the nomcom understands on whether the grounds for the
questioning/rejection are legitimate.
