[NCSG-EC] [NCSG-PC] Fwd: Fwd: ICANN Excellence award - IPC will nominate Jeff Neuman

Wed Mar 25 01:49:29 EET 2020

I would certainly support Joly or Don Blumenthal.  Don, for those who
didn't know him, was a former law enforcement/regulator who believed
passionately in the rule of law and civil liberties/human rights.  He
was exactly who we want as a law enforcement/cybersecurity leader --
and he was a member of SSAC at the end of his life. He passed away in
the Fall.
Joly is a great nominee too!  
Best, Kathy

I would totally support a Joly nomination.  Also I agree with Kathy
we do not need to support the other candidate given some of the
positions they have taken in the past.

	While we can't block this nomination, I would strongly recommend not
joining it.  Jeff Neuman may win, but he does not need our help or
endorsement. 

	Jeff is an unapologetic support of New gTLD registries and
overexpansion of intellectual property rights. He was a huge supporter
of the private Public Interest Commitments -- the creator of the term
"Walled Gardens" for a registry world in which registrants have no
rights. He has fought, as co-chair, for registry rights to be embedded
in the New gTLD applicant guidebook, and these now are.  

	I appreciate his many years of chairing of a PDP WG, but he's not
alone -- I've done that, Phil Corwin has done that, others too. He has
not been particularly fair or neutral -- until complaints were made
and he changed slowly. 

	We don't need to support this nomination.  We can applaud politely
when he wins. 

	Best, Kathy

	Folks ,could we get a 48 hour turnaround on a decision on this
matter?  My apologies for the delay in acting, I have been
preoccupied with the virus. 

	cheers Steph

Dear NCSG colleagues, 
 Sorry to throw this into your inboxes when we're all fighting the
madness, but the deadline is rapidly approaching to nominate Jeff for
the (formerly called) "Ethos Award". The IPC had decided back in
February to nominate him, and now RySG is keen to join on, and perhaps
RrSG also. With this momentum going, I was hoping it might be across
the board for the GNSO. 
 Would the NCSG like to join? Nomination attached, which I will need
to submit to the online application form by Friday. 
 Very best wishes to you all, hope you're keeping safe and sane, 
 Heather Forrest

Thanks very much to Graeme, Wolf-Ulrich and Donna for your responses.
Here's where I understand the situation (correct me if I'm wrong):  

	* RySG supports joint nomination
 	* Graeme to confirm whether RrSG supports joint nomination
 	* ISPCP will not join joint nomination, but members may choose to
nominate him individually.
 	* BC and NCSG - no response as yet (understandable, when we're all
flat out dealing with pandemic arrangements),so I'll poke you again
one more time tomorrow after the IPC meeting if I don't hear back
between now and then.
 	* Nomination draft revised to incorporate the excellent suggestions
from ISPCP - I have highlighted major changes in yellow - as attached.

Best wishes to all, be healthy,  
 Heather

	I agree with Wolf-Ulrich that the inclusion of additional aspects of
Jeff’s long standing participation in the community would likely
improve his chances. 

	I can confirm that the RySG is willing to support the IPC in its
nomination of Jeff.

	Thanks Heather,  

	I've brought your suggestion to the attention of our constituency at
our call today. Those participating in the conversation expressed
their agreement to Jeff being nominated. Finally we decided to leave
it up to the members to file support personally before the 27th.   

	We also discussed the rationale for the nomination. It may help to
improve the chances for Jeff if additional aspects of his long lasting
ICANN engagement could be appreciated: eg Vicechair term on GNSO
Council, chair of the WG who drafted the GNSO PDP (Annex A to the
Bylaws) and the related Manual in the GNSO Procedures where he has
shown outstanding capability of cooperation.   

	Best regards

	Dear Donna, Graeme, Wolf-Ulrich, Claudia, Stephanie,  

	I hope this message finds you all well and out of harm's way.   

	I should have thought of this sooner but... better late than never.
The IPC proposed in its February meeting (now over a month ago, but
Cancun madness intervened) to nominate Jeff for the formerly ICANN
Ethos Award, now Community Excellence Award. We have the attached
nomination in draft form, and I had intended to submit it after next
Wednesay's IPC membership meeting. I understand that RySG has also
been discussing nominating Jeff, and so the thought arose to circulate
our draft and ask if perhaps this isn't one of those rare moments in
history for an all-GNSO action? Or at least to ask if there are other
SG/Cs who would be interested in signing on.    

	The deadline is next week, the 27th, so we need to keep an eye on
time.    

	Best wishes to all,   

	Heather
