Dear all, you may be aware that there will be some changes this year regarding the EURALO leadership (at our next GA probably in autumn) and some first and *urgent nominations* for a) NomCom 2016 and b) our next regional selected ALAC member. As we know from the past, such options are usually not manifold – finding people from our community to step in and investing two days per week (minimum) to fulfill such demanding tasks. We repeatedly discussed these issues over the last weeks with our ALAC members and NomCom delegate and came up with a very first scenario: - for NomCom 2016 – Wolf and Sebastien (suggested) - for ALAC – Yrjö and Sebastien (suggested) - for the next EURALO Chair – Olivier (suggested) further options need to be considered of course and are noted so far – see: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/2015+ALAC+and+RALO+Elections%2C+... Please note: as we have several candidates for the same functions (NomCom and ALAC) already, we need to conduct an Online vote with support of At-Large Staff (what needs time to prepare and conduct by mobilizing our members). Regarding timelines and process, please see details from At-Large Staff below. The deadline for NomCom and ALAC nominations is *15 May – next Friday*! Thanks for your consideration and comments.
