[NCSG-PC] Fwd: Interest in GNSO SSC

Sat Mar 25 09:24:29 EET 2017

Hi Ayden,

I agree that diversity is indeed important. I would like to add that
for that reason we should also have both of our constituencies
represented.

I'm not so sure if this would be a good place for a newcomer though,
I'd like appointees to have at least some experience in this type of
work, even if perhaps not so much in ICANN.

So I would hope our three representatives have a mixture of experience levels within the ICANN community (I would welcome there being one slot set aside for a newcomer), diversity (I would not support all three candidates being the same gender, if all candidates are sufficiently qualified), and representativeness (ideally the three representatives will be from different geographic regions though I appreciate this is an imperfect metric). Or is this too simplistic a rubric for assessing the candidates?
