Nomination of Ayden Ferdeline for GNSO Council

[Martin Pablo Silva Valent]

I would like to very strongly support and promote Ayden’s nomination, if he accepts! I’ve been working with him since the first day he step inside ICANN and I am currently working with him in many different projects. He has proven over and over to be commited and with knowledge to deal with the policy and process stuff needed in the Council.

I welcome Milton’s idea!

Go Ayden! And if he doesn’t accept, I will still use the opportunity to publicly thank him and give my support to his work, even when we don’t meet eye to eye in every topic. 

Cheers,
Martín Silva

I’ve been extremely impressed in recent years with how quickly and how deeply Ayden has been able to dive into NCSG’s policy work and move our agenda forward, including protecting the privacy rights of Internet users.  I’m quite sure Ayden would make an excellent representative for NCSG and would continue to work hard to advance our shared goals on council.

He has done a great deal of research on the RDS issues, and follows the meetings with regular and very helpful interventions.  He clearly has a very strong work ethic and the policy capacity to understand our complex little world at ICANN.  It would be great to have him on Council.  I sincerely hope that he accepts this nomination.
