[Gnso-ssc] Final Selection of GNSO Candidates for ATRT3

[Susan Kawaguchi]

Dear SSC members,



Following our call today regarding selection of GNSO candidates for the
ATRT3, we are seeking additional input on the mailing list from those
members who were unable to attend the call. *Please provide input no later
than Thursday 8 November at 11:59 UTC*.



Members on the call today agreed that the primary task of the SSC should be
to fill vacancies in the existing list of candidates rather than seeking to
make major changes to the full slate of candidates. Based on individual SSC
member evaluation of the candidates, SG/C endorsements, and discussion, and
supported by poll results, members favored filling the two vacancies for
primary candidates as follows. Note that the order does not matter for
primary candidates. All will serve on the ATRT3:





*Name*

*Type*

*Region*

*SG/C Affiliation*



Wolfgang Kleinwaechter

Existing 2017 candidate

Europe

NCUC (endorsement not possible in 2017 application round)



*Patrick Kane*

*New 2018 candidate, filling vacancy*

*North America*

*RySG (endorsed)*



*Osvaldo Novoa*



*New 2018 candidate, filling vacancy*

*Latin America*

*ISPCP (endorsed)*



The SSC also discussed the one vacancy in the list of additional
candidates. The additional candidates may be selected by SO/AC leaders if
there are remaining slots to be filled and/or to ensure diversity. The
members on the call suggested filling the vacancy as follows. *Note that
members did not decide if the SSC should rank additional candidates in
order of preference. If you have an opinion about whether and how to rank
these candidates, please respond on list by EOD Thursday.*
