[PC-NCSG] Fwd: [council] Reminder: Call for candidates: GNSO Liaison to the GAC

[Marilia Maciel]

Hi all, I agree with supporting Markus and I subscribe to all of the
compliments made by Robin, about skills, openness and personality.

However, I just would like to take the opportunity to stress one thing,
which should not at all be read as a personal comment related to Markus.
Only a process that is seriously malfunctioning would make someone that
comes from the governmental sector and is leaving the technical community
(we know the problems of revolving doors) the only option that seems viable
to non-commercial interests and civil society. It is a pitty we could not
manage to see Avri or Sam there. And it is also a pitty that the GNSO
review will conveniently avoid such problems.

Best
Mar?lia
