We also could add one from NCUC if they like. If any Constituency would like to appoint someone other than their Councilor who has volunteered, then they can swap.

I object to this arrangement. Clearly there is a lot of interest in this
group, and it is in our best interests (as representatives) to spread
some of this work around to interested members of our respective
constituencies. An open call for participation has already gone out,
interest has been expressed - why our we moving to reconsider the
arrangements after a decision has already been made?
And perhaps I missed this detail, but how did Mike come to be the "group
coordinator"?
Apologies for the late reaction to your question, however there has been
much ICANN work this summer and this detail had previously escaped my
attention.
