> Dear all,
>
> We have to nominate someone from the NCUC to the nominating committee.
> Maria Farrell was our representative during this year and I would like to
> nominate her for another term. Maria has been fantastic as our rep in the
> NonCom.
>
> As well as being a contributing member of the committee with good
> attendance and participation, she helped the committee improve its openness
> and transparency. While some of the nomcom's work (assessing candidates)
> needs to be confidential, there was scope to be less secretive about the
> timings and process as a whole. Maria set up the nomcom blog (
> http://icann2011nomcom.wordpress.com/) to increase awareness. She worked
> with the Chair of this year's Nomcom, Adam Peake, to use that blog and also
> the main ICANN blog to keep the community more up to date than previous
> nomcoms have on what the committee does. She also blogged about the
> committee's work at www.mariafarrell.com and www.crookedtimber.org.
>
> Maria worked with other key committee members to encourage women to apply,
> as the tiny numbers the previous year were very troubling. She was
> successful in more than doubling the number of women candidates by using
> targeted outreach, public forums and the blogs.
> Finally, although nomcom members' responsibility is to the organisation as
> a whole, and not their appointing group, Maria did an excellent job in
> ensuring that we nominated candidates whose backgrounds and views are from a
> wide range of the community.
>
> If I don't hear any objection by July 29, 2011, I will submit Maria's name
> as NCUC's NonCom rep.

>
> Dear Konstantinos,
>
> I understand you are chair of the NCUC.  I am writing to ask that the NCUC
> select a delegate to join the 2012 Nominating Committee (NomCom).
>
> Maria Farrell served on the 2011 NomCom and is eligible to serve an
> additional 1 year term.  Maria was a very valuable member of the committee,
> I hope she will be willing to volunteer again and if so the NCUC will be
> willing to select her to serve.
>
> We would be grateful if you could make your selection by Monday, 15 August.
>
> We hope service on the NomCom will be interesting and rewarding. In
> 2012 the NomCom will select 3 Directors of the ICANN Board, 2 members if
> the ALAC, 1 member of the GNSO Council, and one member of the ccNSO Council.
>  Please note the following as you invite volunteers and make your selection:
>
> All 2012 NomCom members should be able to attend the Dakar ICANN meeting,
> 23-28 October including an additional day Oct 29th when we anticipate the
> 2012 NomCom will hold its first formal meeting. Travel, accommodational
> other expenses will be provided.
>
> NomCom delegates should have a high level network of contacts essential to
> candidate recruitment (and we hope the NCUC as sending entity will support
> your delegate and help them with outreach.)
>
> The person should be able to join monthly teleconferences (typically UTC
> 13:00.)
>
> Note that the committee's workload will increase significantly during
> May/June 2012 when the candidate assessment process will be at its busiest.
> We anticipate holding weekly calls at that time (again typically UTC 13:00).
>
> The person must be able to attend the June ICANN meeting, Prague,
> 24-29 June and NomCom selection meeting expected June 30 and July 1st.
>
> The person should be willing to work in a large, consensus-oriented
> committee.
>
> Please consider geographic diversity of the NomCom when making your
> selection of delegate, also more women members would be helpful (2011
> NomCom: of 21 members 10 were Europeans and 6 North Americans, 3 women).
>
> Please send the name of the NCUC delegate by Monday, 15 August to Joette
> Youkhanna <joette.youkhanna at icann.org> and me.
>
> Many thanks,
>
> Adam
