Council meeting 179 item 14 Replacement ccNSO member CSC Effectiveness RT
by Bart Boswinkel Jan. 21, 2022

Jan. 21, 2022

Dear all, As you may have noted from the agenda, Jens Pétur Jensen (.is) one of the two ccNSO appointed members on the CSC effectiveness Review Team has informed the RT he had to step immediately for personal reasons. Hence the ccNSO has only one appointee on the RT (Maarten Simon) and the Council is requested to find a replacement as soon as possible, as the Review Team has started its substantial work. If agreed to find a replacement, there are two approaches: 1. Send out a call for volunteers to community. This will take at least a few weeks (call open for two weeks and if more than one candidate, Council selection. Please note that when Council send out the previous call for volunteers to seek members of the RT only two candidates (Maarten and Jens Pétur) responded, and only after an extension of the call. 2. Council appoints member from the Councillors or actively seek a person who may be interested. Taking into account the experience of the previous call for volunteers and also the need to appoint a new member rather sooner than later, Council is advised to go for the second option. Kind regards, Bart

UASG leadership thanks ccNSO for a very positive and encouraging response. For better coordination on UA with ccNSO, UASG would like to request a UA liaison from ccNSO to UASG. UASG leadership will plan to meet regularly with the ccNSO’s nominee to learn on ccNSO’s plans for UA and discuss how UASG can help provide materials and other support. UASG leadership considers that a more regular communication through the liaison will help with the coordination and progress on UA. Going forward there are two issue that will need to be addressed: 1. What is the role of the ccNSO with respect to Universal Acceptance, if any? Does the relevant part of the ccTLD community expect the ccNSo to take on a role, and if so, which one. 2. Does the ccNSO Council want to appoint a liaison, if so should this be a Councillor or could this also be a ccTLD community member?
