<div>Wholeheartedly agree with Mason here. I would even go further and say that I believe some of the more troublesome decisions made by the NGPC can be directly linked to the fact that, as a rule, anyone with any experience in the gTLD process is excluded
on the ground of potential conflict. Conflicts are bad, but depriving yourself of experience is even worse in my view, especially since any subsequent round should learn from past experience and, yes, mistakes. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Speaking of experience and horse racing, and by way of a long overdue introduction, I have been in the ICANN world since 2001, successively as a ccTLD Registry representative, a gTLD Registrar (where I was blessed to serve as Vice-Chair of the RSG alongside
Jon and Mason), I founded a Registry Service Provider (home of 21 gTLDs in this round) and I am now managing the operations of a gTLD applicant whose parent company is a Registry Escrow Provider. And, yes, I am a Lawyer :-) </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am delighted to be part of this group and hope, as Liz said, that we can start working pretty quickly. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All the best,</div>
<div>JC </div>

I agree with Ron that a chair and vice chair are appropriate for a group this size.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I also agree with Rubens, Tobias and Craig. Speaking frankly, everyone has a horse in the race of some kind and I don't think it's necessary to predetermine interests of a potential chair by assigning it to a contracted or non-contracted party. The chair,
as is the case with ICANN working / discussion groups, has a duty to neutrality and a primary role of facilitating the work. I prefer not to worry about interests and instead vest some trust in the chair and indeed, begin our work, which will be substantial.</div>

one V Chair (should the Chair be absent) would probably suffice, in my view.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">What agonizing over conflicts of interests has done IMO, is ensure that the people with the right amount of knowledge are kept at arm's length and therefore cannot bring that knowledge to useful community debates.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Also, we may choose someone who appears to have no conflict now, and who turns out to be an applicant in the second round! There's just no way of knowing that now. The person in question might not even know, because plans and business opportunities

That is to say, they should neither be applicants nor new registries. Within the long list of members, I am sure that we can select those that have no horses in the race, as they say. In this way both the work and the optics will demonstrate transparency
and accountability in an appropriate manner. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
