As I mentioned to some of you (by way of general information) at the close of our teleconference last week with the ALAC Liaison Candidates... Siavash has previously indicated to Izumi, Hong and myself, that he was interested in being nominated by APRALO for this position... To this end please accept this email as my formal nomination of Siavash Shahshahani for this position; and I call for both a seconder and for Siavash to confirm his continuing interest, and accept this nomination on this list. Also having completed last night's ALAC teleconference monthly meeting at 0145 hrs this morning, may I endorse Raj's call of your attention to the timeline details in the link below... any other intended nominations need to be very cognoscente of the August 21 2300 UTC deadline, so we can further this important process and meet our proposed timelines... This process feeds into the ALAC -> ICANN work plan, which is extraordinarily busy between now and the ICANN meeting in LA and absolutely no extensions can be considered...
