[council] For Vote: Final List of CSC Members and Liaisons

[Julie Hedlund]

Dear GNSO Councilors,

 

I am sending this message on behalf of the GNSO Customer Service Committee (CSC) Selection Committee.

 

Following the evaluation by the ccNSO and GNSO Selection Committees, please see the attached final list of the full slate of CSC liaisons and members for the upcoming vote outside of a meeting to be held by the GNSO Council beginning not later than 06 August and closing 09 August.  This list will be linked to the previously submitted motion for the vote at: https://community.icann.org/display/gnsocouncilmeetings/Motions+9+August+2016.

 

As noted previously, the GNSO Council requested that the GNSO CSC Selection Committee shall engage, if requested, with the ccNSO Selection Committee to evaluate the full slate of CSC members and liaisons.  The GNSO and ccNSO CSC Selection Committees met on 02 August to consider the CSC liaisons and members. Following that meeting the GNSO CSC Selection Committee sends via this message to the GNSO Council the recommended list of CSC liaisons and members.

 

Although the GNSO and ccNSO CSC Selection Committees recommend approval of the full slate of CSC liaisons and members to our respective Councils, the GNSO CSC Selection Committee believes, and imagines that other SOs and ACs might agree, that there are concerns with the timing of the process.  We suggest that these concerns also should be raised to ICANN and the community when the ccNSO and GNSO convey their joint approval as a formal statement. 

 

First, both the ccNSO and GNSO Selection Committees agreed that although the full slate of members and liaisons fully embodies the skills and general diversity necessary for their roles, the GNSO CSC Selection Committee believes that the extreme time limitation for the selection process may have limited a broader diversity of candidates from being encouraged to apply.  Furthermore, some potential candidates may not have applied due to the lack of time for outreach to address questions or concerns about the skills needed for the member and liaison roles.  The GNSO Selection Committee has noted that in the future review of the CSC Charter the membership process should be amended to address the above mentioned issues.

 

As noted above, the attached list is subject to the vote of the GNSO Council after which the ccNSO and GNSO Councils will provide the final list to ICANN not later than 10 August.

 

Kind regards,

Julie Hedlund, Policy Director
