are some qualifications described for potential volunteers to this group. I
was wondering who is meant to determine whether these qualifications are met
in volunteers. Is the GNSO Council meant to do this, or are the SGs/Cs
supposed to do this prior to submitting names? I didn’t think the second
scenario was the case, as the application process seems to be simply notifying
a councillor of the desire to join the group, who would be expected, in turn,
to communicated this to the GNSO secretariat.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>

Board adopted a set of new ICANN Bylaws, as revised on 26 May 2016, that aim

remaining United States Government oversight of ICANN. The Generic

need to be made to the GNSO’s current Operating Procedures and related
mechanisms and to the ICANN Bylaws in order to give effect to new roles and
obligations of the GNSO under the new Bylaws, such as those in this table
