RE: [council] Non-Contracted Parties House Nomination for Chair X

Yes, I believe this matters. Because the world around us is not as friendly as 
our community and this is not a matter of person’s interests- commercial or non 
commercial. I’m talking about perception. Like this  “Chuck is a great guy, but 
he works for Verisign” – do you believe that it was never said behind your 
back? I know that you working in the internet so many years and your reputation 
is unquestionable.  gNSO members also know it.  I respect you and I was saying 
this openly: you are one of the internet fathers. But the politics is unfair. 
Again, don’t take it personally guys.   I learned that there are some themes 
which are taboo in gNSO. Sorry to violate one of this.

Thanks for the comment Andrei. With all due respect to your second of Olga’s 
nomination, I have some questions that come from my own personal curiosity: 
Does it really matter whether the interests of a person are commercial or 
non-commercial?  Does the fact that one person’s interests are commercial and 
another’s are non-commercial make one’s interests more problematic than the 
other’s?  In my opinion, the key is whether a person is able to perform 
leadership responsibilities in a neutral and fair manner regardless of their 
interests.  

 

In my view, both Olga and Stéphane have demonstrated that they can perform 
leadership responsibilities in a neutral and fair manner.

I completely support this choice and would like to second Olga’s nomination. 
Don’t know if it is necessary or not, but this comes from my believe that at 
least for one year Chair must set far from commercial groups. 

 

Best regards,
