Dear Councillors, During tomorrow's council call, the nominations to the ccNSO council will be discussed, especially the fact that we did not receive a valid nomination for the EU region during the nomination period. However, please note that today Juhani Juselius (.fi) was nominated (by Hilde Thunem, .no) and seconded (by Anne-Marie Eklund-Lowinder, .se). Juhani has also indicated that he is ready to accept this position. I was contacted by Hilde earlier today, asking whether a delayed nomination would still be valid. I replied that strictly speaking it isn't, but that she should go ahead as it would be helpful for the council to know which candidates could be taken into consideration. I hope this is helpful for tomorrow's discussion.
