Re: [council] Volunteers requested - GNSO Council liaisons

["James M. Bladel" <jbladel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Agree with Amr, just trying to be as transparent as possible.

I believe I can continue to represent my stakeholder positions on this PDP, 
while faithfully relaying any issues that need to be raised before the Council. 
  And I am confident that other volunteers on this PDP (including other 
registrars) will speak up if they believe I am not doing a good job in this 
regard. :)

Thanks--

Hi,

When James had mentioned that he wouldn't mind liaising with the PPSAI PDP WG, 
he also mentioned that he was actively engaged in it. I understood that to be 
some sort of disclosure on his part.

When I volunteered to liaise with the translation & transliteration of contact 
information PDP WG, I should have probably done the same. I'm not sure if there 
is a conflict of interest in being actively engaged with a PDP WG and acting as 
liaison between that WG and council, or not. If so, I'd appreciate a heads-up.

Thanks.

Amr

Dear All,

One of the items of the wrap up meeting was finding volunteers for the 
different liaison positions that have become vacant due to people stepping down 
from the GNSO Council. You'll find below a list of working groups / efforts in 
need of a liaison and a list of those that volunteered during the wrap up 
session. If there are additional volunteers for these efforts, please feel free 
to share your interest with the list. As a reminder, the main objective of a 
liaison is to be able to assist the WG should there be any issues or questions 
for the GNSO Council as well as being able to address any questions the GNSO 
Council may have in relation to the effort. Furthermore, a liaison facilitates 
the submission of documents and motions once the WG has completed its work.

Best regards,

Marika
