[NCUC-DISCUSS] Nomcom review draft

[Robert Guerra]

Having served on the nomcom in the past I am quite keen that NCUC and 
other entities comment on the review so that the many issued facing this 
most important body be identified and significant changes made to make 
it far less subject to capture, more open and transparent and consistent 
with the goals and objectives of the reforms implemented as a result of 
the IANA transition.


I’ve added comments in regards to the - change of the processes and 
procedures on how the NOMCOM operates - that is done EACH and every year 
- in an opaque, closed door processes without any - transparency not 
consolation of the ICANN community.

IMHO, such a key body shouldn’t be left to be able to change its own 
procedures the way it has been doing so. It opens itself to the 
potential of perceived and/or actual capture by interests (as is the 
case this year). I would recommend that an option is to shift the 
defining of the rules and procedures from the NOMCOM leadership to the 
empowered community. This would allow for - an open process and 
consultation, discussion and due notice - before changes are 
implemented.

regards

Robert
