[IPC-GNSO] Vice chair

[Lori Schulman]

My thoughts are to elect our vice chair now until the chair issue is resolved.

>From my late night read of the GNSO Procedure and the ICANN Bylaws, this is not expressly stated.  It merely says there are two vice chairs, one from each house, with terms of no more than one year (but no term limits are stated, other than those that apply to them as Councilors).

There is no provision for the current situation.  There is no "hold over" concept as there is with Board seats, where the sitting Board continues until replaced, if not replaced at the end of the term.

As a governance matter, the GNSO Council is likely better off with two vice-chairs, but it can certainly function for a limited period of time with one.

We are in uncharted territory.

Not sure. Contracted parties reappointed Volker (for now). So I guess he can run things alone in the absence of a second vice chair until a suitable Chair is negotiated.

IPC Leadership:

What's the plan for our (interim?) vice chair? No doubt it will come up in today's wrap up session.
