Hi, no matter what bylaws and MoU say, I support a broad interpretation of diversity including gender, geo-political culture and political perspectives. If we have the opportunity to cover several dimensions of diversity, why would we not do this? Regarding experience with ICANN, if experience would principally count more than diversity, old hands would always prevail and newcomers never had a chance. Moreover, ALAC like the ICANN board can and should combine a mixture of experienced and new members. Jeanette Thomas Roessler schrieb:

/I see nothing in the MoU or bylaws that support this vision.
I was arguing from an overall political perspective. I was *not* talking about the MOU, so your response is a distraction. (Which I find disappointing.)
Cheers,
