This is just a one year term. <br><br>When the NomCom approached me - it was just after I was elected by the NCSG as a GNSO Council member - I had to think about what to do.<br><br>In my statement for the NCSG election I outlined some plans what I want to do in case I will be elected to the GNSO Council. I reconsidered it when I was approached by the NomCom and concluded that to be member of the ICANN Board - even if it is only for one year - offers even greater opportunities to bring values, positions and interests of the non-commercial constituency - and here in particular the human rights dimension - into ICANN policies and decisions even if I have to work as an ICANN director - according to the ICANN Bylaws - for the benefit of ICANN as a whole. <br><br>I understand that this will create another vacancy within the NGSG. NCSG has now to fill another NCSG seat in the GNSO Council. I am convinced that you will find a procedure to fill this gap as quick as possible. <br><br>At this stage I can only say that I will continue to remain engaged this great NCUC community and will offer my help as much as I can. <br><br>Feel free to contact me if you need a liaison to the Board at any time. <br><br>Thanks for all your suppport<br><br><br>Wolfgang<br>_______________________________________________<br>Ncuc-discuss mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Ncuc-discuss@lists.ncuc.org">Ncuc-discuss@lists.ncuc.org</a><br>http://lists.ncuc.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ncuc-discuss<br></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
