All,

I have to support Sebastien

The four people are fully qualified and trustworthy. That's not the issue.

Such is the life of the volunteer community in that we are all completely strapped for time, as ICANN activities pile-on it is difficult to manage it all and find new blood for slots while the bus is in motion. However, we have to find a way to keep our leadership selections democratic while also retaining experts who have precious insight.

I admit it is a conundrum.

Hello,

Disclamer

I am not member of ALAC.

My point of view is in no way link with the people – all four I trust very much and I thanks them to take the time and to be willing to do it another year.

I am not candidat to any of those position.

But I want to express my deep concern.

I disagree both with the process and the timing.

Accountability and transparency must be at the heart of ALAC (and At-Large).

To keep the same people again and again with no possibility for other (at least) to be candidate is not the best way to be inclusive.

We need to have an open process.

It must be a decision of the « new » ALAC seated at the end of the AGM in Dublin.

All the best

Objet : [ALAC] Liaison appointments for 2015-16

Our current ALAC-appointed Liaisons are:

GNSO: Olivier Crepin-Leblond
ccNSO: Maureen Hilyard
SSAC: Julie Hammer
.mobi: Murray McKercher

According to ALAC RoP 18.2, "By the decision of the ALAC, a current Appointee who is willing to continue in that role may be reconfirmed instead of initiating a new selection process."

Following consultation with ALAC Members, I conclude that there is widespread agreement that we extend the appointment of all four Liaisons for the coming year.

I will be asking that the ALAC make a formal decision on this at the ALAC meeting on Tuesday.

If you will not be able to attend the meeting, please arrange with another ALAC member to vote on your behalf, and notify At-Large Staff of this arrangement. You may either instruct the proxy-holder how to vote, or you may allow them to vote as they wish ( http://tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-2013-04, Section 12.3)
