> As one of the newer members of the Constituency I've been spending a lot of time observing and trying to figure out both how things do work and how they should work at the NCUC. Bill Drake, more than anyone else, extended a welcoming hand when I showed up in Prague to join the group . That's important because the best way to address volunteer fatigue is having more volunteers. Bill knows this.<br>

Fadi Chehade is obviously not a status quo type of executive. Dubai may, or may not, present challenges to ICANN that are currently unanticipated. Bill's U.N. ties will serve us well no matter what happens. There is no one better able to marshall the NCUC through the changes that are forthcoming, and maintain and promote the role of our Constituency in the IG ecosphere, than Bill Drake.<br>

I'd like to nominate Bill Drake for Chair of the constituency - besides his extensive experience and writings on Internet governance and issues directly of concern to NCUC members, he has been one of our elected reps to the GNSO Council for the past 4 years.<br>
