[lac-discuss-en] Announcement: At-Large Board Director Slate of Candidates Selected by the BCEC and Next Steps
Dear All,
On behalf of the At-Large Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC), and in
accordance with the agreed schedule for the At-Large Board Member Selection
Timeline, we are pleased to announce the names of the slate of candidates to
fill Seat #15 of the ICANN Board. These candidates have passed the initial BCEC
evaluation and were approved on their call of Tuesday, 21 January 2014. Their
names were announced to the ALAC by Olivier Crépin-Leblond on 28 January 2014.
The candidates, listed in alphabetical order of their family name are:
* Rinalia Abdul Rahim
* Sebastien Bachollet
* Alan Greenberg
* Evan Leibovitch
* Jean-Jacques Subrenat
The other applicants who submitted Expressions of Interest (EOIs), listed in
alphabetical order of their family name are:
· David Allnutt
· Bobbie Lloyd
· Varol Senel
One applicant withdrew their EOI during the BCEC evaluation period.
The RALOs are now asked to consider whether any of the applicants who submitted
EOIs but were not selected by the BCEC should be added to the final slate of
candidates. In order to be added to the final slate, an applicant must be
supported by three RALOs. The deadline for support from other RALOs for
additional candidates is Friday, 21 February 2014.
Please see the relevant text of the ALAC ROPs below:
19.9 Final Candidate List
19.9.1 -Following the publication of the BCEC slate of candidates, RALOs
have an opportunity to suggest adding candidates to that list. The timetable
should allow for consultations and outreach both within and among RALO's.
19.9.2 - RALOs can only suggest candidates who had previously submitted an
EoI to the BCEC during the current selection process.
19.9.3 - Candidates will be added only if they receive support through a
formal vote of at least three of the five RALOs, each RALO voting according to
its respective rules.
The final slate will be announced on Sunday, 23 February 2014.
Regards,
Heidi Ullrich, Silvia Vivanco, Matt Ashtiani, Gisella Gruber, Nathalie
