    <p>Morning</p>
    <p>As of 23:59 last night there were no additional expressions of
      interest directly to me or on the list as far as I can see.</p>
    <p>This means that the NCSG PC has to select three of the four
      following candidates for the Standing Selection Committee (SSC). 
      The candidates are:</p>

      </li>
    </ul>
    <p>There are a number of ways we can decide who the members should
      be.   One simple solution is to agree all, with one as an
      alternate (foreseen in the SSC outline doc.).<br>
    </p>
    <p>Alternatively, we could discuss and agree the criteria important
      to this role on this list and then try and hold a Skype call or
      similar to agree the slots (at the latest sometime Monday).</p>
    <p>If PC members have other suggestions please reply all.  (We are
      of course supposed to decide by rough consensus as per the NCSG
      bylaws section 2.5.2

      <p>Hi all</p>
      <p>We have three slots to fill.  So far we have three candidates
        who are members of the PC including the PC Chair - Poncelet, Ed
        and Rafik - and as far as I know they have appropriately recused
        themselves from the process.</p>
      <p>A call has been made to the community for further nominations -
        the deadline is Thursday, 23 March, 23:59 UTC.   <br>
      </p>
      <p>I suggest that the remainder of the PC be ready to assess the
        raft of candidates on the 24th (including any potential new
        candidates) and express their views on the list.  If we remain
        with the above three our job is straightforward.  If we have
        additional candidates then we may well have to vote.</p>
      <p>We have deadline of the 27th to communicate the names of our
        members.</p>
      <p>Does this make sense?</p>

        Thanks, Martin, but I’m a bit puzzled by your response.  All
        NCSG GNSO Councilors are each a representative of <u class="">all</u>
        NCSG members, not of specific constituencies, and it is
        important you understand this fundamental responsibility of an
