      Hi
      <div class=""><br class="">
      </div>
      <div class="">If I may be a boring old process stickler for a
        moment: while everyone likes funny statements etc., it actually
        would be helpful if candidates for NCUC positions would submit
        statements that respond to the agreed questions rather than
        writing free form essays.  There’s a reason we’ve used these
        questions for years; they ask for specific responses to
        important issues, and they allow voters to easily compare and
        contrast candidates’ views and records.  In writing free essays,
        someone might inadvertently overlook some of them and thus not
        provide members with information that can help them make
        informed choices.  So I repeat the questions once again in the
        hope that going forward we can return to our standard practice
        in the conduct of elections.</div>
      <div class=""><br class="">

      <div class="">
        <div class="">1. Why do you want to serve on the EC?</div>
        <div class=""><br class="">
          2. Provide a brief biography of recent experience,
          associations, and affiliations relevant to serving on the
          Executive Committee. Describe the relevance of your personal
          and professional experience to serve on the NCUC Executive
          Committee, and identify any conflicts of interests you might
          have.</div>
        <div class=""><br class="">
          3. The EC performs several functional responsibilities for the
          Constituency.  What  level of time commitment can you bring to
          your EC role on a weekly and overall basis?  Describe any
          concerns or limitations on your ability to attend online
          meetings of the Executive Committee and ICANN Meetings in
          person. </div>
        <div class=""><br class="">
          4. Communication with the membership is critical. How would
          you keep members apprised of your EC-related activities?</div>
        <div class=""><br class="">
          5. How do you foresee NCUC’s function, scale, or role changing
          in the future? What areas of ICANN policy, if any, need more
          attention and why?  </div>
        <div class=""><br class="">
        </div>
        <div class="">Incumbent candidates should answer in a manner
          that is both backward and forward looking, i.e. taking note of
          their contributions and work in the previous year.</div>
        <div class=""><br class="">
        </div>
        <div class="">People should address each of these points,
          including the last one. The statements should be relatively
          concise, e.g. a paragraph or two per question.  </div>
