NOMINATION PERIOD OPEN - ICANN gNSO Council Representative

 

In accordance with both the ICANN bylaws and the ISPCP bylaws this is

the official call for nominations for an ISPCP representative to ICANN's

gNSO Council.

 

According to the ISPCP Articles adopted at the Santiago meeting of the 

ISP and Connectivity Providers constituency (and later amended between 

the Melbourne and Stockholm ICANN meetings) an election of 

representatives to the gNSO Council is to take place when a 

representative's term expires or when vacancies for the representative 

positions exist.

 

With the adoption of the most recent ICANN By-laws, the ISPCP is 

required to elect one member to the gNSO Council.  This member will be 

taking the seat currently held by Tony Holmes.

 

We are looking for a person from the constituency to fill this position.

 

The ISPCP Articles call for a nomination period of two weeks.

 

Every member of the ISPCP may nominate one candidate for the position 

of ISPCP representative to the ICANN gNSO Council.
