[NCSG-EC] Fwd: Re: Replacement for a council member in ICANN 64

[Raoul Plommer]

I think our strongest candidates so far are Amr and Tapani, and because
NPOC has only one seat in the council, I'd actually like to see Martin
replaced by another competent NPOC member if we had one. I think Tapani
certainly is more than capable to handle the council's F2F meetings and
he's been following the list until now, so yeah, I'd really want to see him
there. It's also about Tapani working for NPOC during the meeting, as well
as keeping him activated overall.

There are also other available options that NCUC has to get Amr there, and
I have to say I'm somewhat surprised he's not given a PIR-slot, for
example. NPOC has really none of these other possible slots at the moment,
apart from the standard four of the constituency and NCSG EC slot. With
Dave using NPOC's CROP-slot (as opposed to NCUC's) and Martin missing, we'd
only have five members coming to Kobe, as it is. How many does NCUC have
coming over?
