We were fortunate -- and challenged -- to have 36 applications of volunteers to serve. We greatly appreciated the time and effort your group invested in your endorsement process and providing us with high caliber candidates. In selecting the members of this team, we considered multiple factors, including SO & AC endorsement, experience with governments, experience with organizational governance, understanding of ICANN’s working practices, consensus-building, analytical skills, ability to draw evidence-based conclusions, aptitude to build metrics and balances of geography, gender, service on the prior Accountability and Review Team, etc. These factors necessitated difficult choices.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><br>We have selected about one third of the applicants in addition to the ex officio positions allocated to the NTIA Administrator, GAC Chair and Board Chair to fill personally or to a designee. While there is no hard and fast limit on the size of the review team, based on past experience and our current judgment, we feel this team is the right size, is strong and is fully capable of conducting an excellent review. For the people who have not been selected, we appreciate both their candidacies and the effort of everyone involved in advancing their candidacies. In particular, we recognize that each person who applied for membership on this review team has made it clear she or he cares deeply about ICANN and is willing to devote substantial time and energy to improve our processes. We invite all who applied, particularly those who were not selected, to make use of the many other opportunities to participate in the ICANN process. And with respect to the Accountability and Transparency review process, we will ask the Review Team to solicit inputs early in the process from all of the candidates who were not selected.<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Heather Dryden<br>GAC Chair and Co-selector of ATRT2 members<br><br>Steve Crocker<br>Board Chair and Co-selector of ATRT2 members<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
