voting/tabulation process for future elections

[Carlos Vera]

I'm in favor of a new mailing list for election issues.

Please count on me for this mailing list if created

Hi Bill,

That is a very good suggestion. Let's form a working group, basically
just create a new mailing list, for people who want to work on
election reform, rather than clogging up the general -discuss list
with all the details.

There are well over 500 members on this list and interest in reading through this debate may not be universal. Our priority here should be facilitating engagement on ICANN/GNSO policy issues.

If we have suggestions about a better format for NCSG elections, we should convey those ideas to the NCSG EC. There they will be deliberated in an open and transparent manner such that we arrive at a clear consensus with regard to the way elections are handled in the future. In the mean time there is ample other business to attend to.
