[NCUC-DISCUSS] NCUC election 2017: Nominations period OPEN

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi Remmy,

Thanks for the questions.
All positions are open for nomination as like in every election.  those
eligible for another term are indicated by"eligible for reelection" or
"eligible for another term". I should have been consisted there to avoid
confusion. Grace is term-limited. For myself as indicated during NCSG GNSO
council election, I am not running for another term as NCUC chair.

Best.

Rafik
