Hi,
NCSG endorses:
WHOIS: Kim G. Von Arx (Canada/Switzerland)
SSR: David Cake (Australia)
BTW, our SSR endorsee pool comprises three USian men and one Australian man.
This obviously fails both the geographic and gender diversity tests we approved:
3. In making their selections, stakeholder groups should give due consideration
to the following diversity objectives:
*Unless the applicant pool does not allow, no more than half of the GNSO’s
nominees should come from the same geographical region; and
*Unless the applicant pool does not allow, the GNSO’s nominees should not all
be of the same gender.
We could somewhat improve the blend by following the diversity procedure and
voting to add to the pool George Asare Sakyi. People might want to review his
application and talk to their SGs before the Council call.
The WHOIS endorsee pool comprises two USian women, one Canadian man, and one
USian man. So on gender diversity we're good, on geographic not so much.
However, there's nothing that can be done about it given the applicant pool,
seven USian and one non, who's already in.
Going forward, we might want to encourage more diverse folks from our SGs to
apply.
Cheers,
Bill
