> Hi,
>
> While I expressed interest to put my name for chair election, I am fine
> with running for vice-chair instead considering the current context.
> taking the opportunity to run as vice-chair seems more reasonable for the
> time being. We had a call with Heather last week and also ongoing
> discussion between councilors about the nomination. I understand there may
> some concerns but we can play our role to keep GNSO leadership on track. it
> also seems that both groups didn't start the process in due time, nor we
> had a process to start with.
>
> I advise that we go with supporting Heather nomination from NCPH and
> continue the discussion with CSG about vice-chair position and election
> processes (not waiting for intersessional to do the later).
>
> We have few hours left, so we should share our decision with CSG asap and
> make the nomination before midnight at UTC time.

> Best,

> Dear PC,
>
> Deadline for GNSO Chair candidate nominations is October 1, that
> is the end of this week.
>
> Background:
>
> The rules say that each house will be allowed to nominate
> one candidate. Meaning we'd have to agree with CSG.
> And we'd have to find a candidate the other house will
> also accept.
>
> Time is short. We really should open talks with CSG now.
>
> And if we want one of ours to run for Chair, we'd also
> need to talk with CPH at the same time.
>
> Chair needs 60% supermajority in the council to be elected.
> My math says that works out to 16 councillors, when CPH
> and NCPH both have 13 (6 per constituency plus two NCAs).
>
> Eligible for nomination are all new councillors, including
> all NCAs (even non-voting NCA).
>
> For more details cf. 2.2 in GNSO Operating Procedures.
>
> And as you may recall, if CSG gets the Chair we'll get Vice Chair, as
> per the procedure we agreed on.
>
> I haven't heard anything from CSG after Jo'burg, but there I got
> the impression they'd be likely to offer Heather Forrest.
> Note that if she's elected she could only serve one year,
> as she's term-limited as councillor.
