Dear candidates,
EURALO is planning to start its regional consultation on the Board candidate (Seat 15) by next week (further details you can find below FYI). Before this regional selection process I would like to invite you to forward a **brief summary** of your EOI to the EURALO list because nobody will read (or has the time to) extensive PDFs of the candidates. Please use this opportunity for a presentation to our members until the end of week (preferably until Sunday 9 March midnight).
Thanks for your support and kind regards, Wolf

Hello,
as you may have noticed before, we had to select a Proxy Voter for Jean-Jacques Subrenat until beginning of this week, and there was one self-nomination by Oksana only. Lutz indicated his interest in a direct exchange with me but didn¹t dare to suggest himself. And as he was not nominated on the list until Friday midnight (I need to stay neutral in this respect), Oksana is now the only candidate for this proxy vote.
But as noted before, there are still some URGENCIES for the ICANN Board candidate (Seat 15) selection and voting consultations among our members where I NEED your support!
To start such a consultation on a preferred regional candidate (out of the five) as we did fairly well last time in 2010 this needs some mobilization of our community. OR, if nobody cares, such a consultation process doesn¹t make much sense (except a lot of work for me).
As a next step, I will invite the five candidates to forward a brief summary of their EOI to the EURALO list because nobody will read (or has the time to) extensive PDFs of the candidates. And they may use this opportunity for a presentation to our members until the end of week further details you can find on the Workspace: https://community.icann.org/display/ABMS/At-Large+Board+Member+2014+Selec tion
According to the narrow timeline of the Board Member Selection process, we need to conduct our regional consultation on the five candidates until Sunday, 16 March (!) to allow the Chair (who is part of the electorate as well) a *directed vote from our community*, as we did in 2010. Based on the experience from 2010, there won¹t be a ³winner² in the first round vote and we may need to conduct a 2nd regional consultation on the final candidates early April.
But as said before, such a consultation needs *a solid feedback quorum of more than 50 per cent of our membership* at least otherwise it will be useless or badly substantiated!
To my memory, this Board was asking in Lisbon for ³getting more involved in EURALO¹s regular tasks² here you have a best chance to support the chair to get this done! And I don¹t see any good reason why I should mobilize and chase our members just by myself and for my own pleasure again.
Thanks for any favourable consideration and support!
Kind regards, Wolf

Dear all,
as discussed at our (well attended) monthly call tonight agenda item 8 -, there are some URGENCIES for our region over the next weeks regarding the ICANN Board candidate (Seat 15) selection and voting consultations among our members.
A first Announcement: At-Large Board Director Slate of Candidates Selected by the BCEC and Next Steps was sent to this list by At-Large Staff on 28 January to give you a first overview about the five candidates.
Further to this, one of our ALAC members who are part of the electorate is personally involved as one of the candidates (Jean-Jacques Subrenat) and needs to be replaced for the voting - for more details see: https://community.icann.org/display/ABMS/At-Large+Board+Member+2014+Sele ction
As discussed tonight, we would like to ask you for suggestions of names to replace Jean-Jacques Subrenat in the upcoming voting. As the timeframe is short for this (4th March) you can name suitable replacements until Friday this week (28 February midnight). If we receive more than one suggestion, we have to conduct a majority vote until the beginning of next week on EURALO¹s proxy vote. As it is difficult to assume how many of our members will contribute within a few days, let me suggest that a simple majority of those who respond will count.
According to the narrow timeline of the Board Member Selection process, we need to conduct our regional consultation on the five candidates until Sunday, 16 March (!) to allow the Chair (who is part of the electorate as well) a *directed vote from our community*, as we did in 2010 during the first Board Member Selection process. Based on the experience from 2010, there won¹t be a winner in the first round vote (starting from 16 March) and we may need to conduct a 2nd regional consultation on the final candidates early April.
I am aware that this is a challenging schedule for EURALO again but as in the past our members should have a say in this important selection process for Seat 15 again. Your support for this is much appreciated! If you have any further questions, please let me know. Thanks and
kind regards, Wolf
