Many thanks for your reactions, I would like to confirm that we’ll surely organize this extension, which will be announced tomorrow. The announcement will only mention the closing date for sending in applications, while there will be no mention to the deadline for SO/ACs to send their endorsement, as to avoid misunderstandings.
The date of 7th February was proposed by GNSO so as the Council can consider candidatures while in Nairobi, with the request to not delay it any further, while Chris underlines the value of Nairobi for the identification of candidates.
I think that both remarks are fully legitimate, even if your different needs make it difficult to find a compromise. If you’ll be able to find a solution which works better for the whole of you along the lines that we discussed, please let me know by tomorrow mid morning CET, otherwise I will proceed with the announcement; the new deadline(s) –subject to final green light from Selectors- will therefore be:
* 7 March – deadline for candidatures to be sent to the general email address
* 17 March – deadline for the SO/ACs to provide the ‘endorsement’ of candidatures
Obviously, staff will forward you all applications received mentioning your respective SO/ACs as already agreed.
Best regards
Marco

Marco,
I will go with this if CLO and Chuck are fine. The only point I would make is that the 7th means no opportunity to discuss candidature, encourage good people etc actually in person at ICANN meeting.
Chris, Cheryl, GNSO suggested a third option, namely
* 7 March – deadline for candidatures to be sent to the general email address
* 17 March – deadline for the Council to provide the ‘endorsement’ of candidatures
This is not really dissimilar from what preferred by ALAC (7-15).
Unless you have strong preferences for your suggestion, I would go for this option.
Thanks
MArco

Marco,
I think that the opportunity to discuss in Nairobi is likely to be the best that can be done to get good people to volunteer. For that reason I’d suggest the later deadline.
However to allow enough time for nominations to be endorsed straight after the ICANN meeting whilst people are still travelling, I’d recommend that the deadline for candidatures be 11th and for endorsement 17th.
Cheers,

Importance: High
Chris, in agreement with Janis and Peter I would like to explore with you if a further and consistent extension of the applications for membership in the first Review Team could alleviate your time pressure and result in a higher number of qualified candidatures.
The new deadlines can be as follows (two alternative hypothesis):
* 7 March – deadline for candidatures to be sent to the general email address
* 15 March – deadline for ccNSO to provide the ‘endorsement’ of candidatures
OR
* 13 March – deadline for candidatures to be sent to the general email address
* 17 March – deadline for ccNSO to provide the ‘endorsement’ of candidatures
Please let me know as soon as possible what is your preferred option, and feel free to share this email internally
Best regards
Marco
