[EC-NCSG] NCSG 2013 Annual Election Plan

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi Robin,

thanks for the proposal, the schedule looks fine for me. I am just
wondering of staff can provide "e-check-in" soon and if members can confirm
without having to register at confluence.

Best Regards,

Rafik

> 2013).  All NCSG members are eligible to vote in the annual election, which
> is held via an email ballot administered by ICANN.   The NCSG Charter
> contains more detailed rules and procedures for the annual election and
> check-in process, but below is basic summary.  Please let feel free to

> *4 POSITIONS UP FOR ELECTION:*
> -- There are 3 NCSG GNSO Council Representative seats up for election.
>  These 3 seats are currently held by Wendy Seltzer (who is term-limited out
> from re-nomination), and Joy Liddicoat and Wolfgang Kleinwachter, both of
> whom are eligible to run for another council term if nominated.  These 3
> GNSO Council Representatives serve a 2-year term.
>
> -- NCSG must also elect 1 new NCSG Chair and I am term-limited out from
> re-nomination.  NCSG Chair serves a 1-year term.
>
> *TIMELINE:*
> 10 August : Announce Election
>  1 September : Voter List Finalized
> 10 September : Nominations Open
> 24 September : Nominations Closed
>  1 October : Voting Begins
> 14 October : Voting Ends
> 17 October : Announce Results
> 22 November : Term Begins
>
> *CHECK-IN:*
> As per the NCSG Charter, we must conduct the annual "check-in" process to
> create the final Voter List.  As we discussed in Beijing, ICANN believes
> there is a technical solution we can utilize so members could check-in
> electronically via the web wiki (rather than me personally pestering each
> member for a month).  We should begin the check-in process as soon as
> technically possible to maximize voter participation.  I'll check with
> staff about getting the annual check-in process going right away.
