Result of APRALO Poll on Board Director Petition Candidates
by Hong Xue Nov. 8, 2010

Nov. 8, 2010

Dear All, Please see the final result of APRALO poll for consideration of additional candidates to be petitioned by RALOs. 9 out of 19 ALSes participated the poll. Thanks all for your kind participation. Here are the result: Avri Doris 5 Yes, 1 No, 3 Abstain Okore George 1 Yes, 4 No, 4 Abstain Raham Khan 1 Yes, 4 No, 4 Abstain Jordi Palet Matinex 1 Yes, 4 No, 4 Abstain Maria Shkarlat 1 Yes, 5 No, 3 Abstain Jean-Jacques Subrent 5 Yes, 1 No, 3 Abstain Danny Younger 3 Yes, 2 No, 4 Abstain Ahmad Al-Shagra got 1 Yes, 5 No and 3 Abstain but cannot be counted because the applicant failed the BCEC's due diligence but was wrongly included in the applicants' list. Please refer to Heidi's email sent on 6 November 2010. All the other applicants got 0 Yes. Since there is no specific procedure to define RALOs' "petition", except that it must be endorsed by at least 3 RALOs. Therefore, APRALO presents the result of the regional polling for the other RALOs to consider. APRALO would agree to petition for any of above-listed 7 applicants who got more than ONE Yes vote.

Notice of administrative error in posting of two SOIs for At-Large Board Director
by ICANN At-Large Staff Nov. 6, 2010

Nov. 6, 2010

Dear All, Due to an administrative error, the statement of interest of John Yunker (available at: At-Large <https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/2265195/At-Large+Director+…> Director Applicant - John Yunker.pdf) for the position of the At-Large selected Board Director was not posted on the At-Large Director Candidate Workspace (see: https://community.icann.org/display/DirCan/At-Large+Director+Candidate+2010…) along with the other applicants that had not been selected for the slate of candidates on 28 October. At the same time, the statement of interest of Ahmad Al‐Shagra, which the Board Candidate Evaluation Committee had judged to be too incomplete to merit further consideration prior to its first round of evaluations, was posted in error. The error has now been corrected on the At-Large Director Candidate Workspace. Staff have informed both parties and the chair of the BCEC. We sincerely apologize for this oversight.

FW: Seat 15: request for inclusion in the Final Candidate List.
by ICANN At-Large Staff Nov. 3, 2010

Nov. 3, 2010

Please find below a message forwarded from Jean-Jacques Subrenat. You can find Jean-Jacques¹ Statement of Interest for Seat 15 of the ICANN Board under: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/2265195/At-Large+Director+A pplicant+-+Jean-Jacques+Subrenat.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=128832185600 0 Kind Regards, At-Large Staff ------ Forwarded Message From: "jjs.global(a)gmail.com" <jjs.global(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, 3 Nov 2010 04:02:42 -0700 To: ICANN At-Large Staff <staff(a)atlarge.icann.org> Subject: Seat 15: request for inclusion in the Final Candidate List. Dear At-Large Staff, this is to formally request that my Statement of Interest for Seat 15 of the ICANN Board, already presented to and considered by the BCEC, be submitted to the RALOs. The reference for my above request is ³ALAC Internal Rules of Procedure², section 27.6 on ³Final Candidate List². In support of my renewed candidature, I wish to underline three facts: - my candidature was already submitted to and considered by the BCEC for the establishment of its Slate of Candidates, so I am not sending you my Statement of Interest, which you hold and which is now also online; - the time between the online publication of the BCEC Slate of Candidates, and the upcoming deadline for candidatures to be considered and submitted by RALOs (7 November, if I¹m not mistaken), is now extremely short, which is why I request that you, as At-Large Staff, forward this request to the RALOs as soon as possible; - currently attending the ICANN Board Retreat in California, I am quite occupied with my duties as a Board Director. Would you be so kind as to acknowledge receipt of this e-mail, so that I can be certain it has reached you? Thanks. Regards, Jean-Jacques. ------ End of Forwarded Message
