Hi Bart Happy to help if online review and editing docs helps - I’ll be travelling for work all next week so calls will be a little tricky.

The public comment period will close 29 May 2023. According to the introduction of the public comment the proposed amendments would: * Require that three of the NomCom’s eight selections to the ICANN Board of Directors meet a new qualification requirement of being “Unaffiliated” (Article 7 of the Bylaws). * Change NomCom delegates’ terms to serve two-year terms, instead of one year (Article 8). * Transform all NomCom delegates into voting delegates, except for leadership (Article 8). * Create a NomCom Standing Committee to provide continuity across annual NomCom cycles and to build the institutional memory of the NomCom, since the NomCom itself operates on a tight timeline and needs to focus on its recruiting and evaluation activities. (Article 8). * Define how these new requirements will be transitioned into practice (Article 27). Not included in proposed amendment is the composition of the Nominating Committee. It is my understanding that this will be discussed in a separate track. The proposal is to launch a ccNSO Council Statement procedure. If you object or have any concerns please reply to the list, by Friday 28 April 2023, noon UTC If you support, please also consider whether you want to participate in the drafting team. Tentative timeline if supported: * Convene drafting team: 2 May 2023 * Initial draft ready to circulate to Council 17 May * Council feed-back, comments etc. 24 May * Finalization of submission 26 May * Submission by chair: 29 May 2023 Kind regards, Bart
