Chris Thank you for your e-mail. I see lot of benefit from having your suggested discussion and will make myself available any time before Friday 9pm when I need to leave to the airport. Best regards JK From: Chris Disspain [mailto:ceo@auda.org.au] Sent: ceturtdiena, 2010. gada 11. martā 8:34 To: Dengate Thrush Peter; Kārkliņš, Jānis Cc: 'ccNSO Council' Subject: Accountability and tranparency review Janis & Peter, At the ccNSO Council meeting yesterday the following resolution was passed; “The ccNSO Council endorses and supports Becky Burr for the Transparency and Accountability review panel and thanks Becky for her willingness to undertake this role”. I will be formally confirming our endorsement to Marco and Alice shortly. I understand that there is disagreement between the two of you about Becky being on the panel. Please note the following: 1. The ccNSO has overwhelmingly endorsed Becky for this role. We believe she is extraordinarily well qualified to undertake the task and will bring a depth of knowledge on all aspects of ICANN to the work of the panel. 2. Becky has been appointed to the ccNSO council by the Nominating Committee. She is now in her second 3 year term on the council having been re-appointed. The Nominating Committee is tasked to find persons of integrity, objectivity, and intelligence, with reputations for sound judgment and open minds. Becky demonstrates all of these and this is clearly endorsed by the Nominating Committee who have appointed her twice to her role on our Council. 3. As you, Peter, demonstrated this morning in the public forum during Wolfgang’s presentation (by asking the Nominating Committee appointed directors to identify themselves etc.) appointees of the Nominating Committee should be and indeed are held in high esteem. I urge you to follow the endorsement and recommendation of the ccNSO. Further, I understand that you are considering asking us to seek additional volunteers that the Council would endorse as you are concerned that ccTLD community in ‘under-represented’. The ccNSO is satisfied that Becky is more than capable of representing us on the panel. However, provided that you confirm Becky as a panellist we will, should you wish, endeavour to find some additional panel members from the ccTLD community. If you are not prepared to select Becky the ccNSO council will not provide further endorsements. Should you wish to meet to discuss this, I shall be happy to do so.
