[PC-NCSG] [Gnso-ncph-leadership] NCPH v-chair election - just what we all have time for

[Amr Elsadr]

Yeah?, like I said, I like Heather a lot too. I?ve also attended a GNSO WG newcomers webinar that she presented in, and she really does know the PDP manual backwards.

Which is kinda why I was surprised she took a strange position on the motion to request an issues report for the new gTLD round (and the suggested amendment to that motion). It seemed inconsistent with what I believe her to know about what issue reports are, and what should go into them.

My concern is that in situations like this (or others), being an IPC rep with a special interest in how the GNSO is managed will trump the individual councillor?s knowledge of what may or may not be the best course of action to take.

I may be reading too much into this, but just sayin?.

Thanks.
