Re: [council] council chair election

[Marika Konings <marika.konings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Wolf-Ulrich for your feedback. Maybe I can turn the question around and 
share with you the original timeline for the election which was approved by the 
GNSO Council following review and discussion (see Proposed time table for 
Election of the GNSO Council 
Chair<http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/gnso-council-chair-election-24jul15-en.pdf>)?
 It may be helpful for everyone to review and provide feedback in hindsight 
whether the timing should have been different factoring in some of the elements 
you outline below so it can help inform future election time lines?

Best regards,

Marika

Subject: [council] council chair election

Hi Marika and Glen,

as discussed during the (new) council development session in Dublin 
communication between the parties involved in the council chair election 
process is essential. I tried to shed some light on this and would like to ask 
for your assistance.

Parties involved:

  *
houses: CPH, NCPH; nominate each 1 chair candidate + 1 vice chair
  *
SGs: RySG, RrSG, CSG, NCSG
  *
Cs: BC, IPC, ISPCP, NCUC, NPOC
  *
council members, selected by their respective SG, C; vote
  *
NCAs: selected by NomCom; 2 vote, 1 non voting

times to be taken into consideration:

  *
designation of new council NCAs by NomCom
  *
designation of new council members by SGs/Cs
  *
nomination of chair candidates by houses

Only when this has been achieved the various communication channels deemed to 
be needed can be activated:

  *
chair candidates to SGs/Cs from both houses
  *
chair candidates to NCAs
  *
SGs/Cs internal and between each other inside the house
  *
SGs/Cs between houses
  *
SGs/Cs to NCAs

Please

  1.
check whether this is useful and complete
  2.
provide timeline relative to the election

Thanks and best regards

Wolf-Ulrich
