It should be noted that Steve Metalitz had an additional answer to Robin's last E-Mail from 25 Oct, 2011, referring to a "process review prior to the next election":

Thanks Robin. Per the agreement confirmed last January, we will review the process prior to the next election.

Thank you for getting back to me, Steve. Since CSG would like to stick to the yearly rotation, we will support Wolf for VC, and then next year's VC will come from the NCSG, as we agreed.
Thanks again,
Robin

Hi Robin,
Thanks for your note. We have considered this option but on balance we would like to keep to the agreement struck last year. Wolf is our CSG candidate and we think he should go through the election process as agreed. We believe he will do a good job for all parts of our non-contracted party house. I know he has reached out to the non-commercial side and will continue to do so. We also think Mary, who is clearly an asset to the entire council, has much to contribute in other important roles. Thanks.
Steve Metalitz
for the CSG Executive Committee
Best regards
Wolf-Ulrich

Given the dominance the contracted parties have historically had in the GNSO, and the need for the NCPH to help set the agenda in the GNSO, I'm sure you agree that it is most important to both our SG's that we have a VC who will be an effective advocate for the entire NCPH. Considering the excellent job Mary has done for the entire NCPH in this last year, would the CSG be willing to consider allowing her to stand for a 2nd term VC?

Rather, let's think about what will best advance the interests of the entire NCPH, and a 2nd-year VC, when we've got an excellent advocate for both our SG's, will serve us both well (and the entire GNSO Council).

That nominee would undergo a vote (nominated candidate v. none of above) and, if the candidate received 8 or more votes, would be elected. If not, then the same process as used last time would be followed (nominations from both SGs, one or more round of voting, etc.). Please see below e-mail chain setting forth this agreement.

May I suggest that you work with Marilyn Cade or Tony Holmes, who are onsite in Dakar, to arrange either for a meeting place, or for an e-mail ballot administered by the GNSO secretariat, in order to conduct an election between Wolf and none of the above before the GNSO council meeting on Wednesday.

I think we need to resolve this among Council, since we're the ones who will have work closely together to make the Council function and our SG/constituency leaders seem to be at an impasse.

So, can we conclude a nomination and vote quickly? Glen has offered to help us set up a ballot at any time.
