[council] Sub Pro - Council Liason to the IRT

[Anne ICANN]

Sebastien et al,

I'm not sure how the selection of Council Liaison works when there is more
than one volunteer.  I just turned down being appointed as an IPC rep to
the Sub Pro IRT since my role as Nom Com non-voting Councilor is to advise
the Council as a whole without regard to any particular position or
interest.

Since today is the deadline for the next Council meeting and since the Sub
Pro IRT is apparently convening this week, could Leadership or staff please
clarify how we should proceed?

And will there be one IRT or two?  (Sub Pro Implementation Guidance calls
for a separate IRT for Applicant Support.)

Thank you!
Anne
