<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>I fully support the nomination of Ed Morris as NCSG
representative for the NCSG on the GNSO Council. Ed uniquely
combines impeccable personal ethics with knowledge and smarts. I
can not think of a better candidate that represents the whole
spectrum of the NCSG with his heart and soul without ever
selling out. Not to re-elect him would be a real shame to the
detriment of the whole GNSO.</p>
<p>I urge you to support Ed in the upcoming election</p>
<p>Klaus<br>

All,</font></p>
<font face="Arial, sans-serif">I am honored to nominate Edward
Morris as European representative for the NCSG on the GNSO
Council.</font>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><font face="Arial, sans-serif">Ed
currently holds this position and, as we have seen, he takes
his job very seriously. Ed works tirelessly as an NCSG
representative in the Council's job of overseeing the policy
development process. He fights to ensure that Issues Report
and Charters – key documents that kick off a new Policy
Development Processes – are fair and balanced. He works with
our NCSG Counselors and others to guide well-developed
policies (developed by the Working Groups) to the Board for
adoption (without the changes and circumvention some parties
often seek to add).</font></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><font face="Arial, sans-serif">Ed
is a leader in the cross-cutting work of Council where he
has led our GNSO response to ICANN's Budget with an in-depth
review and critique, and key recommendations for changes. He
regularly serves on Council subgroups working on responses
to the issues the GNSO faces within ICANN. </font> </p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><font face="Arial, sans-serif">We
know Ed best in the last two years as a leader in the CCWG
process fighting for Transparency, Accountability and Free
Expression. The thousands of hours he spent on these issue
(alongside Robin, Matt and so many others) were critical to
the provisions and bylaws adopted.</font></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><font face="Arial, sans-serif">As
we continue the Transition, and three major Policy
Development Processes (Registration Directory Services,
Rights Protection Mechanisms Review and New gTLD Subsequent
Procedures) now in progress, this is a great time to
continue our outstanding leadership. Ed is a tireless
advocate for our NCSG interests on Council and throughout
ICANN. He is an attorney specializing in politics &
government, free expression, intellectual property and
cybersecurity and whose advocacy and legal skills are needed
in this important time of change and trasition. His passion,
advocacy skills, drafting skills, and Multistakeholder
vision are well-known. <br>
</font></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><i>My
great thanks to Ed for his passion, commitment and
thousands of hours of work for NCSG on Council, and I
hereby submit Ed Morris' name to you for a second term as
our European representative on the GNSO Council. </i><br>
</font></p>

regards,</font></p>
