<html><head></head><body>Thanks, Rafik.<div class=""><br class=""/></div><div class="">I would suggest we appoint three subject matter experts, to be at parity with representation from the other GNSO constituencies. In my opinion it is very important that we always have at least one NCSG subject matter expert on each call. The NCSG did not have a great attendance rate on the SCBO this year, and as Chair, that did put me in a difficult position where I had to put myself in the queue to advance our perspectives. </div><div class=""><br class=""/></div><div class="">I hope we might be able to have a healthier attendance record this year.</div><div class=""><br class=""/></div><div class="">Ayden</div><div class=""><div><br class=""/><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On 30 Oct 2018, at 01:10, Rafik Dammak <<a href="mailto:rafik.dammak@gmail.com" class="">rafik.dammak@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"/><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class="">hi all,<div class=""><br class=""/></div><div class="">with the new term starting, we will receive several calls to appoint and/or to confirm representatives e.g. SSC.</div><div class="">we should appoint subject matter expert(s) to SCBO from NCSG in addition to the councilors who can volunteer directly (they don't need to be appointed).</div><div class="">I understand that Stephanie is interested to be appointed as SME as she was there as councilor previously.
