[UA-discuss] 2023 UASG Elections and Vice-Chair Candidates

Thu Apr 6 18:23:02 UTC 2023

Michele,

Me too, and that can even make the process easier if UASG members won't need
to make double work but just share the link to already published SOI +
probably some additions regarding their interest in UA.

Thank you for the idea,

Maria

Maria

I and others on this list have SOIs on the main ICANN website. Having to
maintain a second one would be an overhead for all parties involved. 

Regards

Michele

Dear All,

As we have many repeating requests from different members of UASG asking who
is who in this mailing list, probably it's the right time for UASG to set a
special procedure for all members to download their Statement of Interest
before joining the group. It could be done through Google form or any
similar tool and all SOI should be published on the uasg.tech with annual
update (before each election process).

Hope it helps.

Maria

today, I now think that ensuring a conflict of interest is crucial for every
leadership role. I was shocked to learn that many people hold numerous
leadership roles within the UASG. How are these leadership positions, such
as vice chair of the UASG, chair of one working group, vice chair of another
working group, and UA ambassadors, justified? What is happening is that UASG
is not abiding by the conflict of interest policies and procedures. How can
one person justify holding so many different positions at once? Is there not
enough community support for UASG's leadership positions, shortage of right
candidates?

Although Pavanaja I haven't noticed much of a contribution from you over the
last two years; you weren't frequently present at working group and other
meetings. I haven't noticed any noteworthy contributions from your end in
the prior UASG leadership attempts to accomplish the UASG mission.
