this is an easy nomination to second, so +1. As Robin has
indicated below, James has proven to be an extremely
dedicated and effective representative of non-commercial
interests in all of the ICANN activities he’s participated
in. I’ll also add that I thought he did an exceptionally
good job relaying some of our concerns to the ICANN board
during the NCSG meeting with the board at the Buenos Aires
meeting not too long ago.</span><br style="font-family:

<div class="">I agree with Amr, James has the energy and plug and
play knowledge needed to be well qualified for the job. Glad he
was willing to throw his hat in the ring. </div>
