 Attalah, President, Global Domains Division).&nbsp; Elise wouldn't be the VP, IANA because she would no longer be a Vice President (and employee) of ICANN; instead she'd be the top dog of PTI. &nbsp;(I continue to push against &quot;Managing Director&quot; because it has no meaning

 find President to be a more desirable and impressive title).&nbsp; I'm sure either President or Executive Director would provide continuity and comfort while also providing clarity as to function in a California Public Benefit Corporation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

&gt; In the course of discussing the composition of the &quot;inside&quot; (controlled) PTI Board, I believe we have stated that three seats would be appointed by ICANN, with two being unspecified ICANN employees and one being the &quot;IANA Managing Director.&quot; &nbsp;I've been asked
 to clarify who this IANA Managing Director is (since this title does not currently exist).&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">Here is where there is a problem by having more than one ICANN employee as a board member at PTI. It would&nbsp; certainly be difficult to maintain impartiality on issues that would have conflict of interest, and as you can see, more than one
 board member is already a majority<o:p></o:p></span></p>
