- User-agent: Microsoft-MacOutlook/14.5.6.150930
Hi Phil & Paul -
We did receive some interest in the role, but significantly less so than when
the Liaison was created two years ago.
Also, none of the applicants had any previous experience with the GNSO Council
or with PDP working groups (chair or participant), which were key
considerations in the selection process. Additionally, we received some verbal
indications of interested candidates, but these were withdrawn prior to the
deadline. (Most likely due to the irregular term, but I also note Phil's point
about the time commitment during ICANN meetings.)
Apologies if this sounds like I'm being coy, but I am attempting to address
your questions without divulging too many details about the applicants, should
they wish to resubmit in the fall.
Hope this helps.
Thanks-
J.

I'm inclined to agree with the proposed timetable, but like Paul would like a
bit more data. In particular, does the term "underwhelming" denote no
applications?
Also, it may not just be a timing issue, but the fact that the Liaison has to
commit to spend so much time in GAC meetings when attending an ICANN meeting in
which their primary interest may be in other discussions going on
simultaneously.
Best to all, Philip

Hi James,

expressed interest. Thanks!

Subject: [council] GAC Liaison - Update
Dear Council Colleagues -
Recently we closed the nomination period for candidates interested in being
considered for the role of GNSO Liaison to the GAC. Unfortunately, the
response from the GNSO community was underwhelming. The Vice Chairs and I
believe that this may be at least partly attributable to the timing of the
announcement, as more candidates could be interested in the role if it
coincided with the terms of other elected and appointed positions, which is the
conclusion of the AGM in Hyderabad.
Therefore, with this in mind, I'd like to propose that we postpone the
selection of a new GNSO - GAC Liaison until later in the fall, with the (rough)
timeline listed below. It is expected that the additional time will generate
renewed attention to the role, additional expressions of interest from
prospective candidates, and permanently align the term of this position with
that of other terms, including most Councilors.
Please let me know if you have any concerns or objections to this approach. On
a related note, Mason Cole has graciously agreed to stay on a few extra months
to ensure continuity. Thank you, Mason.
Thanks-
J.
