Hi, thank you, Wolfgang, for nominating me. I needed to think about the nomination for a while, since, as some of you know, I have always been very much against a regionally structured at large membership. Moreover, I have always argued for an at large membership based mainly on individual instead of organizational participation. Yet, I accept the nomination for a board seat despite the fact that I oppose ALAC's/ EURALO's structure. There is just one reason why I run for a board seat of EURALO. I want ICANN's at large membership to become a home for meaningful and direct, that is unfiltered and non-hierarchical participation by individuals. For those of you who don't know me: I got involved with ICANN in summer 2000 during the at large elections. On behalf of ALAC I served twice on the NomCom. During WSIS I co-chaired, together with Adam Peake, for two years the Internet Governance Caucus. Right now, I am a member of the advisory group that helps preparing the Internet Governance Forum. As a daytime job, I work as a researcher with a public academic institute in Berlin, Germany. Best, Jeanette Kleinwächter wrote:
