Nominations Open for Council

[Judith Hellerstein]

HI All,

I also had the privilege of working with Julf when he was head of NCSG and also 
concur with what Caleb wrote. Julf has his hands-on all policy issues and was 
trying to encourage others to help write policy statements without getting in 
the way of the NCSG Policy chair but providing helpful advice and suggestions to 
all newcomers. At the ICANN meetings he was always available for chats and for 
advice and know I learned a lot from him as well as from Stephanie who nominated 
him.

Julf has done a great job in the operational and admin issues needed to run the 
NCSG, and he has my support.  I know I will miss him greatly as NCSG Chair, but 
will know he will do great things on the Council.

Best,

Judith
