Hi

Ok it’s been four days, nobody else has stepped forward to say they’d like to be considered, a bunch of people have expressed support for Brenden continuing, and the subject line has morphed into a discussion of the NomCom generally (might be worth an update).  So let’s declare this closed, and I will ask the EC to formalize it so Brenden can notify the NomCom staff.

Thanks

Bill

Hi

We need to appoint a NCUC delegate to the 2015 ICANN NomCom in the next week or so.  It’s unfortunate that NomCom’s cycle doesn’t synch with our election cycle but c’est la vie.

What is the Nomcom?

ICANN's Nominating Committee (NomCom) is responsible for the selection of eight ICANN Board Members and for other selections as are set forth in the Bylaws. (See Bylaws Article VII, Section 1 athttp://www.icann.org/general/bylaws.htm#VII-1)

The NomCom is also charged with appointing some members of the At Large Advisory Committee (ALAC), the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) Council and the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council. The NomCom complements the other means for filling a portion of key ICANN leadership positions achieved within the Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees.

Together, the NomCom and Supporting Organization/Advisory Committee selection pathways ensure that ICANN benefits from functional, cultural and geographic diversity in its policy development and decision-making as the Internet evolves.

Who serves on Nomcom?

ICANN’s SOs and ACs send appointees to serve up to two consecutive one-year terms on the Nomcom. You can read more about the structure here <http://nomcom.icann.org<http://nomcom.icann.org/>>.

Who is NCUC’s current appointee to Nomcom?

For 2014-2015, Brenden Kuerbis of the Internet Governance Project served. He took over for Rafik Dammak, who was elected to NCSG Chair.

Brenden has expressed interest to the Exec Com in continuing as NCUC’s appointee. Despite joining midstream, he was able to make a positive impact from recruiting applicants to selecting individuals to positions. Selections were announced on the ICANN website August 15 <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2014-08-15-en>.

Next year is an important cycle for Nomcom. It includes selections for 3 board seats and 2 NCAs to the GNSO, as well as other positions. Brenden has asked the EC for names of people we should approach about applying, as well as opportunities where we might do general outreach.  He is also happy to speak with us about the process and how NCUC can best engage it.

Would anyone else be interested in being considered for this position?  If so we could have the contending applicants make their cases here on the list and then the EC would decide taking into account the views expressed, an assessment of the applicants' qualifications, etc.  If not, the EC can just go ahead and vote on Brenden’s renewal.

Let's please move on this in the next week, before the IGF.

Thanks,

Bill
