Reuse: No open redistribution licence asserted. Bibliographic metadata, editorial paraphrases and short attributed quotations (at most 50 words each). Recheck terms before wider redistribution.
Check notes: The quotation (39 words) matched the text retrieved for the candidate pack on 2026-10-29. Matching ignored differences of whitespace, case, quotation marks, dashes, PDF line-break hyphens and Unicode compatibility forms, so the source’s typography can differ. A cross-family machine check (2026-10-30, item 9) answered the record’s question blind from fresh retrievals and agreed in part: some of the record’s sources could not be retrieved in the check, without any contradiction; nothing was changed at admission. No human editorial review.

Status and meaning

Editorial status. Not reviewed by an editor. An exploratory record that no editor has accepted. This status does not say whether a person has read any linked passage. Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.

Relation. An institutional role with explicitly scoped time: snapshot, sourced interval, or unknown dates. No continuing appointment is implied.

Date. Start from the 8-K, which reports the appointment and that he would assume his new roles immediately; no later document is cited for this record. Open interval, not a claim that the role continues.
