[EC-NCSG] Fwd: Accountability & Transparency Review Team 2 (ATRT 2) - GNSO Endorsement of Candidates

[Robin Gross]

As NCSG has 2 candidates (cc'd here) seeking NCSG endorsement for the  
ATRT team and NCSG has until Wed. 24 Jan. to make its endorsements, I  
propose we do the following:

Provide each of the 2 candidate's stmts to the NCSG list today and  
invite the membership to ask them questions for 24-hours.  The  
members can also begin to raise the issues of concern that they wish  
for the NCSG reps to take into ATRT.

The NCSG will endorse 1 candidate as our primary recommendation and a  
2nd candidate as an additional endorsement (as it says we may do  
below).  The GNSO should endorse NCSG's first choice without  
question, and stands a good chance of selecting our 2nd candidate if  
it would help to meet gender and geographic diversity requirements.

Any objection to this plan forward for making our ATRT selections?   
Time is short, but we have 2 great candidates and may be able to get  
them both appointed to the ATRT this way.

Thanks,
Robin
