Dear all, The nomination period to select a ccNSO representative to the ICANN Board ended last week. The current board member, Mike Silber, was the only candidate to be nominated and seconded (see http://forum.icann.org/lists/ccnso-boardnominations). Mike has accepted his nomination and the ccNSO Council now needs to confirm the nomination at their next meeting (26 October 2011). Even though there is only one candidate, a Q&A session with Mike will be held at the ccNSO meeting in Dakar. Please, prepare any questions you might have for Mike. Kind regards, Gabi
