Working Group Co-Chair

Dear WG members,

Further to the below, again, I am honored to be nominated for this role by 
Paul McGrady, a person I hold in high esteem.

I have seen the emails Phil, Kathy, and also J Scott (whose role has been 
vacated) submitted to this WG, and in that same spirit would like to convey 
the following for your consideration:

I have been involved in ICANN-related matters for over a decade now (which 
is hard even for me to believe!) and over that time consider myself 
privileged to have gotten to know many very smart and dedicated friends, 
and to have participated in interesting and important ICANN policy discussions.


In terms of working with diverse groups such as this WG, my current job 
requires communication and coordination across sectors (e.g., HR, 
administration, finance, IT), as well as participation in the ICANN 
multistakeholder processes on a number of files.  Particularly in assisting 
on a “Specification 13” to the ICANN Registry Agreement, my immediately 
previous job (at new gTLD consultancy Valideus) required communication, 
understanding, and negotiation with all ICANN Stakeholder Groups.  Each of 
these represent forms of consensus building.


Balance, neutrality, and inclusiveness underpin our (Secretariat) mission 
at WIPO;  I also consider myself richer for having worked, for over a 
decade now, with a diverse range of colleagues with different backgrounds, 
nationalities, languages, ways-of-working, and viewpoints.   In my private 
practice days before getting involved in domain names, our clients (mostly 
non-profits such as churches and charities) ranged from very small to global.

I participated in a few prior ICANN “working groups” and also in many more 
policy discussions (e.g., during the various Applicant Guidebook 
iterations).  I also consider myself practical and solution-oriented, and 
as one example, I am proud of the work that went into the mostly paperless 
“eUDRP” that makes the UDRP process more efficient (not to mention 
environmentally friendly) while preserving important due process aspects.

I believe the work of this group is important not only to the ICANN 
community, but all DNS stakeholders – to bring balance and to assist in 
trust of the DNS.  I would be honored to contribute to this important work.

Brian

Dear Phil, all,

Thanks for the nomination, and vote of confidence.  I am sorry I haven’t 
been able reply earlier.  I am in principle willing and able to assist 
here, and am in the process of undertaking a few internal 
discussions/clearances.

I apologize that this will take some time still, but I will be able to 
confirm by COB next Thursday -- which as we are still meeting in subteams 
this week, I hope is OK.

For now, best regards,

Brian

Thanks Paul.

Before the WG goes further in considering this nomination we first need to 
know whether Brian accepts it. Hopefully we will hear from him on that soon.

Thank you Julie.


I nominate Brian Beckham of WIPO.  Although I believe WIPO sits with the 
GAC and not with any particular constituency, I know that Brian has all the 
requisite expertise in the RPMs to serve as an excellent co-Chair.

Best,
Paul

Dear Working Group members,

Per the message below and the discussions during the RPM PDP WG meetings at 
ICANN62 (see attached notes) this a reminder that we are seeking 
nominations for the position of the third Co-Chair
to assist in the administration of the WG’s large and complex agenda and 
encourage members to immediately begin consideration of volunteering or 
nominating someone else.

As noted in the message and for your guidance, please see below the 
relevant sections of the GNSO Working Group Guidelines on how Working Group 
leaders are selected.  Note that holding an election is not mandatory.  It 
is up to the Working Group to determine whether and how it wishes to 
appoint an additional Chair.  In addition, although (as noted below) the 
GNSO Council must confirm the appointment via its consent agenda, in the 
meantime, if the Working Group agrees on an additional chair, he/she can 
begin serving as an interim appointee.

Best regards,
Mary, Ariel, Berry and Julie

Subject: [gnso-rpm-wg] RPM Working Group Co-Chair

Dear Working Group members,

On behalf of Heather Forrest, Chair of the GNSO Council, Kathy and Philip, 
Co-Chairs of the RPM Working Group, we are informing you that J. Scott has 
decided to resign as Co-Chair effective Friday, 02 March.  We are all very 
grateful for J. Scott’s dedication and thoughtful leadership of this 
Working Group since its inception.

At this time we are asking Working Group members to consider the importance 
for this group to continue to have a third Co-Chair to assist in the 
administration of its large and complex agenda and encourage members to 
immediately begin consideration of volunteering or nominating someone else. 
 We also would like to suggest that the Working Group could reserve time 
during our face-to-face meetings on Saturday, 10 March at ICANN61, to 
discuss the Co-Chair selection process; based on our recent survey these 
will be the full WG meetings with the greatest member participation.

For your guidance, please see below the relevant sections of the GNSO 
Working Group Guidelines on how Working Group leaders are selected.  Note 
that holding an election is not mandatory.  It is up to the Working Group 
to determine whether and how it wishes to appoint an additional Chair.  In 
addition, although (as noted below) the GNSO Council must confirm the 
appointment via its consent agenda, in the meantime, if the Working Group 
agrees on an additional chair, he/she can begin serving as an interim 
appointee.

We look forward to hearing from the Working Group on how best to proceed.

Best regards,
Mary, Ariel, Berry and Julie

GNSO Working Group Guidelines: 
https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-1-gnso-wg-guidelines-30jan18-en.pdf[gnso.icann.org]

2.1.4.2   Election of the WG Leaders

Unless a Chair has already been named by the Chartering Organization, 
normally a Chair will be selected at the first meeting of the WG. Until 
that time, the Chartering Organization’s liaison may fulfill the role of 
interim Chair.  A Working Group may elect to have Co-Chairs and 
Vice-Chairs. Under extraordinary circumstances, ICANN staff may be 
requested to perform administrative co- ordination of the WG until such 
time a Chair can be appointed. Once selected, a Working Group Chair will 
need to be confirmed by the Chartering Organization (CO).  The newly 
elected Chair will act on a provisional basis until the Chartering 
Organization has confirmed the appointment.  If there are any objections to 
the selected Chair, the CO will conduct a vote to establish whether there 
is sufficient support for the selected Chair according to the voting 
procedures of the CO.  If not, the Working Group will be requested to 
reconsider their choice for Chair and return to the CO with a new proposal. 
 In the unlikely event that the selected Chair is rejected by the CO, the 
CO must articulate its reason for the rejection and the WG must be able to 
ask for reconsideration of the decision.

Section 2.2: A suggested procedure to conduct elections may be:
• Nominations or self-nominations;
• Statements of qualifications from candidates, which sets forth the 
qualifications, qualities and
experience that they possess that will serve the particular WG;
• Vote by simple majority;
• Notification of and subsequent confirmation by the Chartering 
Organization of results of
actions”.
