All,

the link has not been updated:

Strong objections have been raised to the proposal of having only 7 board seats. 

The alternative proposal was to just take all nominees and let them form the board (10 in case Sebastian and Veronica are going to be ALAC members, 9 in case Patrick and Veronika are going to be ALAC members and 9 in case Sebastian and Patrick are going to be ALAC members) plus the non-voting ALAC members.

We just state that for this period, depending on the outcome of the ALAC selection the board will either have 9 or 10 voting members.

Right after the selection/election of the ALAC members we could celebrate them and the Board too. No further election, hassle, email correspondence on this issue needed.

The current text on the website (link below) assumes, there is a ballot, it assumes certain number of seats... this has to be updated. 

This whole procedure is not transparent enough. The following can help: Any text on the website should be posted via email too.

Quote from website

"The actual ballot will work as follows: 

Each voter will rank, in order of preference, ALL the board nominees. 

The voting system will then produce a list, which incorporates the preferences expressed. 

The board members who will be elected are the top 'N' listed, from the top of the list on down. The Number 'N' shall be either: 

In the case that no objection is raised to the call's recommendation of seven (7) members: 7 

In the case that an objection is raised, then the number shall be that number from the selection above (5,7,9) which receives the most votes. "

Betreff: [EURO-ALS] Voting Porcedure

Priorität: Hoch

Hello,

on https://st.icann.org/euralo/index.cgi?euralo_elections_2007 I read:

"VOTERS: The designated voters (1 per ALS) of ALSes who have signed the 

Memorandum of Understanding with ICANN either in-person at the Lisbon 

ICANN meeting or digitally via electronic mail - at any time before the 

beginning of the voting"

There must be a mistake: First of all we have to decide, if this "strong 

recommendation" will be accepted.

Next: If there are two seats we have to vote for ALAC, then every voter 

should have two possible votes. The two candidates with the most votes 

will be elected. This is the democratical way of election. There ist no 

need for such a ranking.

After the election of the two members for the ALAC seats we have two 

decide, how many seats shall the EURALO board have. The election of the 

EURALO boad members can't start before we know how many board members 

are to elect.

Kind Regarts,

Werner Hülsmann
