<pre><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>As you probably know, the GNSO has two representatives on the ICANN Board. Last year, the GNSO elected Rita Rodin to serve as one of its Board members. The second GNSO seat needs to be filled by May 8, 2007. The GNSO Secretariat has published the schedule below for the election. As we did we Rita’s seat, we will set up a schedule for interviews and provide input to our councilors who will be the ones actually voting. So far, there has been only one nomination – Dr. <st1:PersonName
w:st="on">Bruce Tonkin</st1:PersonName>. If Bruce is elected, we will need to fill the seat he currently holds as a Registrar Constituency Rep to the GNSO. The seat would have to be held by someone outside of Europe and <st1:place
