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

[Stephanie Perrin]

I don't base my judgements on constituencies, I base it on who is actively contributing to the work.  In this case, we are talking about the work of Council.  Amr has been doing the lion's share of the work on the epdp, and GNSO Council will be expected to consider the EPDP output by the time of the meeting.  I would humbly suggest that this is an relevant factor to consider.  Council seats are not based on constituency.  Let me also remind you of the fact that we have many unaffiliated members of NCSG.

Tapani is an excellent candidate, and so is Farell.  Other new members have not contributed as yet so while I don't want to discourage them, as I said in the ad....this is not for novices.  It might be quite a council meeting.

cheers Stephanie

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?

While this statement of interest is a little lean, we all know that Tapani was EC Chair recently and is well versed in council matters.  I am therefore not proposing to ask him for more details, unless someone on the EC wishes me to.

Hi Stephanie,

Count me in. Even though I'm not currently in any working group
apart from being an observer in the ePDP, I've been following
council list and I've been around long enough to be able to
handle this, I think.

Regards,

First, may I take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy and successful New Year! I am looking forward to the great work we will be doing together in 2019.

Readers of this list will be aware that the next ICANN public meeting is in Kobe in March https://meetings.icann.org/en/kobe64. One of our GNSO Council members, Martin Valent, is unable to attend the meeting because of other commitments and we need to replace him quickly, in order to make use of his travel funding allotment, which is allocated by Council. This decision is done through the NCSG EC, and we need to make it very quickly. If you are interested in applying to replace Martin at the meeting, please do so in the next five (5) days, sending me and Maryam Bakoshi a brief statement of your interest, your experience with the council, current working group membership etc. This is not for a novice, Council has a lot of important work on the agenda and if you have not been following the work of Council or the key working groups and policy development processes at the moment, you will find it a struggle. For those not familiar with GNSO Council, it is pretty easy to get engaged...check out the website, follow the lists, attend the monthly Council calls as an observer, or listen to the recordings of any of the working groups you are interested in. You will find the website (unlike many at ICANN) is actually well organized and helpful. https://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/calendar


Thanks for your interest! Deadline is Tuesday January 8, 12:00 UTC.


Stephanie Perrin

Chair, NCSG
