Dear Wolf, dear all, sorry for answering that late, but I just realized that the second part of your mail is about nominations for the GA-elections in Lisbon. I would have expected to see a seperate nomination announcement by staff. But as I understand the nominations have been opened since the 27th of May. For the elections in Lisbon -- see draft agenda (point B 9) -- I would like to nominate for a) the Chair: Wolf Ludwig (the incumbent) and for b) the Secretariat: Yulya Morenets (new - from TaC, France) and c) the Board: the current Board members (if they wish to continue or being partly replaced by new members) -- see: [1]https://community.icann.org/display/EURALO/The+current+EURALO+Board Personally I would like to continue on the Board. I am aware that due to my involvement in the Enquête-Commission of the German Parliament I had not much capacities left for EURALO, but as the work of the Enquête-Commission has been completed last month, I would like to contribute more to EURALO again. All the best Annette Gesendet: Dienstag, 21.

Please note: Hotel rooms are booked for all registered participants for 19-20 June or two nights at the Altis hotel (what is the EURALO GA and EuroDIG venue): [2]http://www.altishotels.com/EN/ and [3]https://community.icann.org/display/EURALO/EURALO+ALSes+Representatives+t o+the+2013+GA As you may have noticed, I circulated a draft of the Board report 2012-13 FYI today what needs to be approved as a regular part of our GA. We are on the way to finalize our Agenda for Lisbon with three parts: a) a formal one reflecting usual Bylaw requirements (quorum, report and re-/elections of officers) b) key and intro speakers (Sébastien, Nigel and Olivier) and c) the *content part* on org. assessment (strength and weaknesses), definition of EURALO’s key themes and priorities, and how to improve and strengthen our member’s involvement in regular activities. Your suggestions for the agenda parts are welcome! See: [4]https://community.icann.org/display/EURALO/2013+EURALO+General+Assembly As we need to conduct re-/elections for Officers and functions at the Lisbon GA (see point 6 of the Board report), we need to follow some procedural requirements fixed in our Bylaws. The regional officer selections will be held at the GA, the proposed schedule, Draft Election Timetable is as follows: 1. Nominations Open: 27 May 2. Nominations Close: 14 June 3. Nomination Acceptance by candidates: On or before 18 June 4. Listing of candidates for the GA: Between 18-19 June 5. Voting Results announced: 19 June at the GA and meeting minutes. Last but not least: Please don’t forget to get registered for EuroDIG what you have to do by yourself ASAP (some of you did already) to provide some planning security for the organizers – see: [5]http://www.eurodig.org/eurodig-2012/information/registration Thanks for your support and I am pleased to welcome most of you soon in Lisbon.
