I hereby advise the At-Large Community, ALS's RALO's and the serving ALAC, that as at 1330 UTC today October 13th, the Call for Elections of the 2008-2009 ALAC Officer is open as per Rule 9.1 of the ALAC Rules of Procedure.
Under Rule 9, nominations are now called for, to fill the following 2008-2009 ALAC Officer positions these roles in the current ALAC have combined to form an ALAC Executive Committee or ExCom which meets monthly in the alternate fortnight to the ALAC and undertakes other strategic and policy development leadership roles:-
Chair
Vice Chair (i)
Vice Chair (ii)
Rapporteur*
ALAC Members who currently fill these roles *and* who continue to remain eligible may be nominated or self nominate for re-election.
*PLEASE NOTE the following definition from our Rules of Procedure regarding the role of the ALAC Rapporteur "�whilst some reporting or collation and preparation of information and notes role may be part of the job description, the following broad definition applies "An independent critical friend; a person acting as a monitor to processes, who is responsible on behalf of the committee to ensure correct process have been carried out." It is further envisaged by the current ALAC Officers (the ALAC ExCom) that in light of the probable recommendations to be made regarding increased accountability and strategic planning requirements on the ALAC as a result of its current ALAC Review, the role of the Rapporteur will need in the future to have a strong strategic planning and project management role within the ALAC and on behalf of the ExCom. The specific details and job description of this and all the executive and leadership roles in the ALAC are also proposed for review beginning in Cairo and finalized before the Mexico meeting and the At-Large Summit.
The deadline for nominations to be made to the At-Large List is 1330 UTC Monday 27th October, 2008.
Nominations *must* be accepted (self nominations will count as an acceptance) be sending a message to the public list no later than 7 days after the close of the nomination period i.e. 1330 UTC 3rd November.
This is a regular election that will be held between the beginning and the end of an ICANN Annual General Meeting and as such rule 9.4.3 is invoked i.e. " � the date and time of the vote shall be within the first 48 (forty -eight) hours after the closure of the Annual General Meeting; thus, the electorate will include the
delegates whose term starts at the closure of that Annual General Meeting, and will not include the former ALAC members whose term ends at the closure of that Annual General Meeting."
Please NOTE: Only delegates (that is one of the current 15 Members of the At Large Advisory Committee) can nominate or self-nominate, by posting a message to the public ALAC list. Anyone who will or has a chance to meet eligibility requirements after the next ICANN Annual General Meeting can be nominated; it is not necessary for nominees to meet eligibility requirements at the moment of the nomination, but, if elected, they will have to meet them before taking their seat. Nominations of individuals who will not meet the eligibility requirements after the closure of the next Annual General Meeting are invalid.
