Hi all,
As requested by Phillippe, I'm replying to this thread to put my proposal during our Council meeting last week into text for our Council members to consider:
I propose we open the call for GNSO liaison to the GAC every 2 years, allowing re-selection/election once with a 4-year hard stop. I believe aligning the Liaison's term requirements to councilors is reasonable and urge our colleagues to consider accepting this as our future practice.
Like I have clarified during last week's meeting, this is not a request to open the call now, but a proposal for what we do in the future.
Looking forward to your reply!
Best, Manju

Thanks Philippe.
If I can make one minor suggestion and that is the annual report. Historically we have done the annual report at the annual meeting to coincide with the re-appointment or new appointment of the GAC Liaison. My suggestion would be that we either continue to do that at the annual meeting or alternatively if for whatever reason you believe it should be prior to the annual meeting, then perhaps September 1st of each year. I can endeavor to get my annual report to the Council at that time this year as that is much closer to what I was expecting.
If, however, you would like to stick with earlier, perhaps in starting next year it becomes due at the ICANN Policy meeting as opposed to a July 1 st date.
Other than that, I am good.
Sincerely,
Jeff

Dear Councilors,
Thanks Paul, Manju, Desirée and Jeff for weighing in on the renewal of the GAC position.
With those inputs, leadership would like to suggest we follow what we have for councilors and add a limit of 4 years with a review every year, possibly more thorough than what we have been doing so far. The attached call for candidates is intended to reflect this. An alternative would be to strictly follow a councilor’s mandate and have a 2 year term without review. The former (4 year), however, has our preference.
Thanks again to those who shared their views, and to others in advance whether there’s any objection to this change.
Best regards,
Philippe
