<div>Michelle DeSmyter:Welcome to the GNSO Standing Selection Committee meeting on Wednesday 31 May at 14.00 UTC</div>
<div> Michelle DeSmyter:Agenda wiki page: <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_x_5yPwAw&d=DwICaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=8_WhWIPqsLT6TmF1Zmyci866vcPSFO4VShFqESGe_5iHWGlBLwwwehFBfjrsjWv9&m=cr3lnjgM6KWyH5x4GyJRLSXf3O8LVVaQ_J1Plc-igNA&s=kuFSJLn7RDHucO1B3GN_eAwTAcFay10lidBM4B2MLHs&e=">https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_x_5yPwAw&d=DwICaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=8_WhWIPqsLT6TmF1Zmyci866vcPSFO4VShFqESGe_5iHWGlBLwwwehFBfjrsjWv9&m=cr3lnjgM6KWyH5x4GyJRLSXf3O8LVVaQ_J1Plc-igNA&s=kuFSJLn7RDHucO1B3GN_eAwTAcFay10lidBM4B2MLHs&e=</a></div>
<div> Michelle DeSmyter:HI there Maxim!!</div>
<div> Michelle DeSmyter:Yes</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:quality issues?</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:good</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:I have a suggestion for page 2:Term and Renewal - that the person is still affiliated with GNSO Council or at least with GNSO</div>
<div> Emily Barabas:Great. I will add to the notes and we can discuss when we get to that agenda item.</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:Please add to my suggestion (afiliated/supported by) , so in case where the person was approved by the GNSO Council and formally have no current affiliation, the Council can still use the services of the person</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:and the ending - or at least affiliatedwith GNSO</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:Not sure of how "affiliated with GNSO" is defined/interpreted</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:My thinking was to show that the person still have some degree of connection with GNSO </div>
<div> James Bladel:Thanks! Connecting audio.....</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:for example - member of NCSG, RrSG e.t.c</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:Hello James</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:Hi Folks. I should be on more regularly now that INTA Annual Meeting is over.</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:Hi Lori</div>
<div> Osvaldo Novoa:Hello all, sorry I am a bit late</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:I was going to ask the same</div>
<div> Emily Barabas::)</div>
<div> Emily Barabas:Thanks James</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:Could we suggest that ICANN provides remote connection (private) for remote participants?</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:for EC meetings</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:since travel is not suggested</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:remote connection?</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:I mean if there is a f2f EC Adm. meeting - ans someone is not there</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:during the ICANN meeting</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:Ok, thanks for the clarification</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:You can never be sure about a cat....</div>
<div> Susan Kawaguchi:especially this cat</div>
<div> Renata Aquino:hi</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:I think we might mention that we thin that those procedures are to be developed (not saying how and by whom)</div>
<div> James Bladel:+1 Maxim</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:*think (sorry for typos ... sitting in uncommon place)</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:James: would it be too much workload if we simply had the GNSO chair perform this function?</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:I think that first test will be budget review</div>
<div> Renata Aquino:thanks</div>
<div> Emily Barabas:Thanks for joining, James</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:my question for James: it is not just time consumption, but also scheduling conflicts (with GNSO Council activities), could we ask James if he is sure that there is not going to be an overlap (so during the ICANN meeting ,ICANN always provides
EC Adm with the non-conflicting slots, so Chair can be there)</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:*about the burden of being GNSO EC rep.</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:Thanks, I heard James supporting the narrow task of identifying candidates but I agree about sending notes of some issues that we have considered that may be out of scope for this group but in scope for another group</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:Maxim's point about time overlaps is a good one</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:if such slots can not be granted ... then standby Rep should be in place</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:james pointed out that scheduling is done by doodle</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:Excellent point Maxim.</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:and there are still conflicts</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:be back in a minute</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:back</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:is Heather the alternate?</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:I pretty much asked that</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:I suggest we need voices of all members - so we could discuss the list, but will need a poll (preferrably choices and - "other answer" with suggestion in the text field)</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:*the current list of questions in PDF</div>
<div> Emily Barabas:Staff can certainly set up a poll if the group would like to do that</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:I support keeping things simple</div>
<div> Emily Barabas:@Lori, I'm not sure if there is an official standing alternate, but I will find out.</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:Sorry Julf, my recall is failing me today and I apologize for repeating the question</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:Lori: no prob, it wasn't entirely clear</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:I think that finding out if there is an "official" alternate would be helpful so we understand what is acutally happening</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:issue of Term will be resolved via "fast removal" procedure we might suggets to invent</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:Current arrangement is temporary in any case</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:I like "anyone in the leadership team"</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:I think that scheduling conflicts usually happen at moments of high load, like right prior to Fin Plan discussions deadline e.t.c</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:"anyone in the leadership team" avoids us having to come up with new procedures</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:@Julf, du you think we might add " with approval of GNSO Chair, and if not possible for natural reasions - by GNSO Council) ?</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:*do </div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:Sure!</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:I am not sure "SSC selects GNSO leaders" is correct ... I thought is was more like "recommends to use GNSO leadership as an pool for EC ADM reps"</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:agree with Maxim. SSC nominates</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:not chooses</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:Thanks all, see you next time</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:how do we handle members who are nominated to other teams?</div>
<div> Lori Schulman:thanks</div>
<div> Maxim Alzoba:@Lori, I think they usually step down for a moment</div>
<div> Julf Helsingius:Thank you all!</div>
<div> Osvaldo Novoa:Bye </div>
<div> Emily Barabas:Thanks all!</div>
