started.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>First of all, in my opinion it would seem to
be helpful to differentiate between baseline job criteria that would apply
to all candidates and variable criteria that would be based on near term needs
of the Council. Here are some of my initial ideas in this regard that
hopefully clarify what I am suggesting.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><U><FONT face=Arial

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>These criteria should include basic skill sets
and minimal knowledge that facilitate discussion of GNSO issues without the
need to educate individual Councilors before effective discussion can
happen. Some are a couple of examples:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<UL dir=ltr>
<LI>
<DIV align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Basic understanding of the DNS - We do not need technical DNS
experts, but a minimal understanding of the DNS is needed to effectively
function on the Council.</FONT></SPAN></DIV></LI>
<LI>
<DIV align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Demonstrated experience working effectively in collaborative
environments involving diverse interests.</FONT></SPAN></DIV></LI></UL>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><U><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Variable Criteria</FONT></U></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>These criteria should primarily focus on skill sets and
areas of expertise that may be missing on the Council in the next few
years. They could vary each year depending on the projected makeup of the
Council. Forgive me for using names but I think that two people illustrate
this need best, one just-departed Councilor and one current Councilor: 1) Cary
Karp played an essential role during the last few years in providing IDN
expertise; 2) Jon Bing's expertise in the intergovernmental arena provided
clarity that was very useful. In both cases, we would have probably had to
seek outside expertise if they were not on the Council. Here are some
possible areas for future needs:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<UL dir=ltr>
<LI>
<DIV align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Intergovernmental expertise (especially if Jon is not re-nominated by
the NomCom)</FONT></SPAN></DIV></LI>
<LI>
<DIV align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>IDN expertise</FONT></SPAN></DIV></LI>
<LI>
<DIV align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Understanding of the special needs of financial services businesses;
this could possibly come from the BC, but it is not always possible for
constituencies to elect Councilors from all key areas they
represent.</FONT></SPAN></DIV></LI></UL>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Ideally it would be nice to get candidates that meet all of
the variable criteria but that seems impossible considering the diverse needs
even in the short list I provided. So it would be important to communicate
to the NomCom that candidates meeting any subset of the variable criteria would
be welcome.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=153394014-08112007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Areas of special expertise that seem to be well covered now
and predictably in the next few years include: registry and registrar
operations; intellectual property; legal; civil society; e-commerce businesses;
developing economies; etc.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
