[Glen de Saint Géry <Glen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Councillors,

We would like to remind you of the revised timeline as adopted in Helsinki for 
the GNSO Liaison to the GAC and that we will be sending a call for candidates 
early in September 2016. We would like to draw your attention to the slight 
adjustment in the timeline which has come about as a result of the change in 
the date of the Council meeting at ICANN57 (see:

1.       The leadership of each Stakeholder Group / Constituency may submit the 
application of its candidate(s), which should include at a minimum a link to a 
completed and current statement of interest as well as a brief note explaining 
why the candidate has applied for this role and how the candidate meets the 
specific requirements by 1 October 2016 at the latest to the GNSO Secretariat 
(gnso.secretariat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx)<mailto:gnso.secretariat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx)>. 
Candidates will be requested to complete an application template.
2.       The GNSO Council Chairs will review the applications received and rank 
these taking into account the skills and experience required as outlined in 
this call for volunteers by 20 October 2016.
3.       Based on the outcome of the ranking process, the GNSO Council Chairs 
will contact the nr 1 candidate to confirm the selection by 20 October 2016.
4.       GNSO Council Chairs will submit motion for confirmation of GNSO 
Liaison to the GAC to the GNSO Council by 28 October 2016 at the latest.
5.       Consideration of motion and approval of candidate by GNSO Council 
during GNSO Council meeting on 7 November 2016.
6.       Confirmation of candidate to GAC leadership (by 9 November 2016).
7.       GNSO Liaison to the GAC officially takes up its role (by 10 November 
2016).
