    While I have the highest regard for Gordon, I strongly suggest that the 
new co-chair be someone outside of the original
KMIP proposers to give a balanced view, representative of the overall 
security community.

That will give us credibility

Sandy,

I am in complete agreement.  Having a co-chair (such as Subhash) who  
comes form outside the original "4 horsemen" KMIP founders sends the  
best message in terms of extensive involvement.  And while Gordon is  
to be commended for his KMIP efforts, I would value is involvement in  
KMIP as voting member instead of as a non-voting co-chair.    
Therefore, like you, I believe Subhash is an appropriate person as co- 
chair.
