*******Message sent on behalf of Seun Ojedeji – AFRALO Chair ********** Dear AFRALO members I have received a letter from ICANN Board Tripti Sinha related to the NomCom Rebalancing. See: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/sinha-to-ojedeji-26apr2... An extract of the questions asked is listed below: 1. What does it mean to have a balanced NomCom at a point in time? For example, what criteria would you apply to measure or assess whether the NomCom is balanced? And further, how can one test whether or not the NomCom is balanced? 2. Do you support the view that the current composition of the NomCom needs to be rebalanced? Please explain why or why not. 3. How frequently does the balance need to be measured or assessed? 4. How do you suggest that the NomCom’s composition be rebalanced? 5. Who should conduct this work, and how should it be conducted? 6. How would your community group prioritize consideration of this issue within your planning efforts? Members are welcome to provide feedback on the questions above. You can do that by either responding to this mail (please don’t change the subject for easy tracking) OR You can share your comments in suggestion mode in this collaborative doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ys-9lTt-t9DNNA0P_B3uTbilm5R2OLK58FfgpqaS...
