Standards [icann.org]</a> required by the ICANN Bylaws for reviews have not been completed and adopted by the Board, so we don’t have a formal process to follow regarding resignations from the SSR2 Review. Ultimately, since Mr. Hasbini is a GAC appointment,
it is our understanding that the decision on whether or not to replace him rests with the GAC. The SSR2 Review Team would, of course, welcome any new members appointed by the community.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The SSR2 currently is <a href="https://community.icann.org/display/SSR/Work+Plan?preview=/64075835/102139475/SSR2_Workplan_20%20Dec%202018.xlsx">working on</a> a draft report for public comment. The SSR2 Review
Team leadership requests that SOs/ACs that are considering appointing new members at this juncture in the team’s work ensure that appointees have the knowledge and time to contribute to the SSR2 Review Team’s work in progress. I suspect that anyone joining
the team today would have need to be very diligent to catch up with the rest of the team.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
