[ncdnhc-discuss] Trashing Our Founding Principles

[James Love]

Jefsey is right.  The NomCom *is* the membership, for all practical
purposes.  So, Alejandro, Vint, Joe Sims and others should provide some
detail on this detail.   Who will be on the NomCom?  How many people will be
on the NomCom?  Who appoints people to be on the NomCom?  Does the BOD
appoint the members of the NomCom?    Does the NomCom apoint its own
members?   Do the SO's appoint the NomCom members?  Do domain holders vote
to put people on the NomCom?   .......My guess, the BOD would prefer to
control who is on the NomCom.

Interesting  note also is that a bare majority on the NomCom is a
supermajority on the board, because the board itself appoints several board
members.

: Dear Danny,
: the point is who would be the members? In the Reform Committee Plan there
: is a Membership: it is the NomComgress.
:
: You will not change something which has been agreed and decided and that
: everyone will support including you very soon (as long as Joe resigned,
: McLougling went awayand Stuart Lynn removed his claim on the root server
: system and ICANN on IANA).
:
: What is open is the IANA assignement and the NomComgress designation. What
: you want is a representative NomComgress. I would advise 1000+ membres:
one
: GAC, one ccTLD, one @large per country plus representatives from ISOC,
: Consumers, Civil Right. They want to avoid capture and costs, this does
not
: mean 20 people only in the committee. Again the proper test which was
: proposed: could Karl and Andy as well as Nii and Katho be elected with
that
: system?
