Hi, John, would you consider to run for this? You would be a great candidate. Have a second thought. Hong On Wed, Aug 25, 2010 at 1:46 AM, John R. Levine <johnl@iecc.com> wrote:
My main concern for a board nominee is to find someone with the personal and organizational skills to be effective. ICANN's board has long standing problems both with internal dysfunction and a chronic inability to supervise the staff. To pick a couple of obvious examples, the board has never spent the two minutes to pass a motion to appoint an ombudsman as required by the bylaws (preferably someone other than Frank), and although I don't have any direct insight into the dithering over .XXX, I got the impression of a group that couldn't come up with a process to lead to a result.
Avri's background is great, but I don't think I know her well enough to say how she'd do in this particular maelstrom.
