<p dir="ltr">Thanks for the share Jordan. Could you kindly confirm if any of the following is not correct:<br>
- The community forum will allow for any member of SO/AC to participate and not selected few<br>
- That the SO/AC intending to remove its board member would not only use the community forum as announcement formality but rather state convincing rationale to the community<br>
- That the community forum could serve as an opportunity to convince the petitioning SO/AC to desist from(or encourage) proceeding with the removal<br>
- That the community forum will be held in a most efficient manner; for instance, it would make no economic sense to have multiple community forums in a year as a result of varying times of petition from the SO/AC (although I read that community forum will hold during the 3rd ICANN meeting but sections as quoted below creates the confusion:</p>
<p dir="ltr">"Where such a call to remove a director meets the required threshold is announced, within fifteen days a meeting of the ICANN community forum.... will be convened"</p>
<p dir="ltr">So how will this workout if a petition is made the February for instance, considering 3rd ICANN meeting is around October.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Regards<br>
