<div dir="ltr">Hi all,<div><br></div><div>I'm thrilled to see so many qualified people running for this position, especially since it is one that requires experience, energy, and time. </div><div>After having gone through the statements, I have to say that we have a fantastic pool of committed candidates and sincerely hope we can build this same spirit for other positions in the near future. Also, I would love to see more women (and women from the global south) applying for future positions.</div><div><br></div><div>My decision has been mostly informed by a balance between ICANN and outside-ICANN experience. I share a similar view as Anriette on the strengths and potential areas for improvement in each candidate. Particularly impressed by Olga's record. We should keep an eye out for her. </div><div><br></div><div>I was quite divided between Wolfgang and Julf. Julf has been our GAC liaison and has excellent experience within ICANN -- I actually see him working with the NomCom. However, I tend towards Wolfgang given his target-focused experience at the exact intersection between ICANN and broader IG. His track record serving in different boards and commissions significantly weighted in breaking the tie. My vote goes to Wolfgang.</div><div><br></div><div>All the best, </div><div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000"><b>Louise Marie Hurel</b></font></div><p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt"><font face="Arial, sans-serif" color="#000000"><span style="font-size:11px">Research and Project Development Cybersecurity and Digital Liberties Programme | Igarapé Institute</span></font></p><p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt"><a href="https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Louise_Marie_Hurel/publications"><font size="1">Publications</font></a></p><div><font size="1" color="#000000">Skype: louise.dias</font></div><div><font color="#000000" size="1"><span><a href="mailto:louise@igarape.org.br">louise@igarape.org.br</a></span></font></div><div><font size="1" color="#444444"><a href="mailto:louise.marie.hsd@gmail.com">louise.marie.hsd@gmail.com</a> </font></div><div><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, 4 Jul 2019 at 01:06, Michael Karanicolas <<a href="mailto:mkaranicolas@gmail.com">mkaranicolas@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>
<br>
Thanks so much for sending that along. First, I must comment that I<br>
was struck be the enormously talented pool of people we had apply.<br>
That said, I give significant weight to Anriette's opinion, not only<br>
because she is our outgoing NomCom rep, who by all accounts has done<br>
an excellent job, but also because she is such a strong civil society<br>
voice in general. I concur with her opinion that some candidates,<br>
which extremely talented and capable, could use a bit more experience<br>
before being nominated to this position.<br>
<br>
I think that Wolfgang's experience and record makes him the best<br>
qualified, and would vote for him.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
<br>
Michael<br>

As an academic his management experience is limited but he has extensive experience at board level, having been on the ICANN board and several other commissions boards etc. Not active in NCUC recently, but active in civil society in the IGF space. A reliable safe choice.<br>
