> *Dear Members,As you may be aware, the GNSO Council is in the process of
> initiating an Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) to address the
> Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data that was adopted by the
> ICANN Board. As a result, we are launching a call for candidates to be
> appointed to represent the NCSG in the EPDP. The NCSG is looking for 6
> representatives and 3 alternates. The EPDP will require a serious and
> substantial time and capacity commitment from our representatives, as we
> will be defending a free and open Internet.While GNSO Working Groups are
> typically open to all who wish to participate, this EPDP will only be
> composed of appointed GNSO Stakeholders Group representatives and a small
> number of SO/AC appointed liaisons. The EPDP charter, still under
> deliberation, outlines the requirements for EPDP-appointed members. These
> requirements for members include: - Possessing a working/basic
> understanding of the GDPR. All members must commit to participating in the
> training selected for the EPDP Team to ensure knowledge adequate to
> effectively participate in the EPDP;- Be responsible to their appointing
> organization (in our instance, the NCSG), seeking input as necessary and
> keeping the appointing organization informed of progress;- Be knowledgeable
> of, and respect the, GNSO policy development process;- Willing to work, in
> good faith, toward consensus solutions during the life of the EPDP, and
> treat other members of the Team with respect;- Available to actively
> contribute to the activities of the EPDP on an ongoing basis, including
> during face-to-face meetings of the EPDP Team; and- Willing to sign the
> EPDP Team Statement of Participation. For the appointed members, there is
> an expectation that they commit to actively participating in the EPDP for a
> significant amount of time: there are likely to be multiple phone calls per
> week and daily attention to the tasks and progress of the group is needed.
> For this intense policy development process, which will extend for the next
> 6 to 8 months, it is essential that any NCSG representative is prepared to
> participate fully and regularly in the discussion. It is an expectation
> that members will represent the position of their appointing organization
> and not their personal views. The NCSG’s appointed members are therefore
> expected to liaise with the NCSG Policy Committee, consult with wider
> membership, and to coordinate their positions with their fellow NCSG
> representatives on the EPDP team and the NCSG GNSO Councillors. All EPDP
> members must sign a Statement of Participation (please see the current
> draft in the annex). You can find more information about the EPDP’s charter
> here

> (still under development).The NCSG Policy Committee will liaise with the

> EPDP, you must: - Be familiar with the EPDP process discussion regarding

> general. Knowledge of the GDPR and how it impacts the EPDP is essential;-
> Having a level of familiarity with GNSO processes;- Commit to participating
> actively in the EPDP through its lifecycle, understanding that this could
> be a significant time commitment for the next 6-8 months, including
> participating  actively on the conference calls, attending face-to-face
> meetings (at least 3 F2F meetings), and making intelligent and professional
> interventions on the EPDP’s mailing list, most likely starting from the end
> of July;- Commit to keeping NCSG members updated and consulting with them

> planning purposes only, and occasional absences will not be a disqualifying
> factor.Please include specific examples in your application as to how you
> meet the selection criteria and how you will represent the NCSG if you
> serve on the EPDP. This will aid the NCSG Policy Committee in selecting
> representatives.The deadline for the submission of applications is
