*Dear All,
I am writing to you on behalf of the ICANN 2011 Nominating Committee Chair, still to be appointed by the ICANN Board of Directors.
The purpose of this message is to initiate the selection of individual(s) from each of your constituencies who will serve, according to the ICANN by-laws, on the 2011 Nominating Committee.
The 2011 Nominating Committee will have 22 members, whereof 17 are voting members. The By-laws state that a voting member may serve at most two consecutive years, whereas a non-voting member may serve any number of terms.
The composition of the 2010 committee, including the contacts used in late 2009 to obtain the name of the designated committee member, is given below. Some of the contacts have been updated to reflect known changes in the internal organization of various constituencies.

*** Position rotates among ETSI (2010), ITU (2011) and W3C (2012) ** Position rotates among ETSI (2013), ITU (2014) and W3C (2015)*
*ICANN’s Nominating Committee has historically held two face-to-face meetings. For the last three cycles, we were able to have the first such meeting immediately after ICANN's Annual General Meeting. This acceleration of the schedule compared to previous years was most helpful in allowing the Committee to function in a timely and effective manner, and I would very much like to preserve this advantage for the next Chair.
With this background, I request the following of all of you. Please choose your representative(s) for the 2011 NomCom as soon as is practical, and not later than the end of August 2010. Please ensure that the person is willing to serve, and is willing to attend the first face-to-face committee meeting. This meeting is expected to occur in Cartagena during 11-12 December 2010. Nom Com representatives are welcome to attend the entire ICANN meeting also during 5-10 December 2010. However, hotel costs and expenses for that period are not covered by the NomCom budget and should be covered by the representative’s sending organization.
I would appreciate your acknowledging receipt of this message, letting me know that you are (or are not) the right person to initiate action within your constituency, as well as whether you anticipate any difficulty in identifying a suitable and willing candidate by the end of August. If you are not the right person to initiate this action, I would appreciate your forwarding this message to the right person and copying me. * *I am copying this to Olof Nordling and Joette Youkhanna. They are ICANN staff members supporting ICANN NomCom. Please copy them on all reply correspondence to me.
Thanks in advance for helping the 2011 committee get off to a good start!*
*Best regards,*
*Wolfgang Kleinwaechter*
*2010 NomCom Chair*
