<p class="MsoNormal">Many thanks, Rafik, for making sure that these issues around the Fellowship Program don't fall off our radar. Thanks also to Martin for volunteering.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We need to appoint a GNSO (as opposed to GNSO Council) representative - which is not at all to say that a member of Council couldn't serve in this capacity, but merely that we need to ensure that the call for volunteers goes out to the
entire GNSO community. The first step will be to develop and run the call for volunteers. I suggest after that we follow the process that we now have well established in instructing the Standing Selection Committee to review all applications received. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The one difficulty we have is that we're a bit behind, and the deadline for notifying of our GNSO rep is Monday. We definitely can't get the call for volunteers out and applications done and reviewed by SSC in that time. Here's one option
for a way forward - I'm happy to volunteer in my capacity as GNSO Chair to sit on the selection committee in the interim until the applications process has run its course (we'll get that underway immediately, depending on responses to this email).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Please post your thoughts so that we can take appropriate action ASAP.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">For the first item, the council can have a small team of volunteers to work on giving guidance regarding the goals. I am happy to volunteer to lead such an effort and looking forward to hearing of others want to join in order to fill the
form (attached). We can use this opportunity to set goals for bringing specific needed expertise and skills as a diversity goal for example for those to participate in PDP WGs. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">For the second item, as SO the GNSO should appoint a member to the selection committee and we expressed previously the interest to be involved in such a structure. Usually, we task the SSAC to conduct such process but in this case, we got
a time constraint here since the deadline is the 10th September.<o:p></o:p></p>
