Unless there are alternate ideas from other Selection Committee members I suggest that, if James agrees, we proceed accordingly. I have accepted your suggested changes and produced a clean version of the email/letter below. I’ve also included the attachments. Kind regards, Julie ---------------------------------------------- Begin Draft Message------------------------------ Subject: Call for Expression of Interest (EOI) for the GNSO Liaison to the Customer Standing Committee (CSC) Dear [chair of SG/C], I would like to draw your attention to the request for appointment of the members and liaisons to the Customer Standing Committee (CSC). Per the Cross-Community Working Group (CWG) on Stewardship the CSC is to be established to perform the operational oversight previously performed by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration as it relates to the monitoring of performance of the IANA naming function. The scope of the CSC is available at https://www.icann.org/iana_imp_docs/43-csc-scope-and-responsibilities-v-v2.

From the GNSO Council membership we have established the GNSO CSC Selection Committee, which per the attached procedures will evaluate the GNSO candidates for the position of the GNSO Liaison to the CSC and submit the top four candidates to the GNSO Council for final selection. The members of the CSC Selection Committee are David Cake, Heather Forrest, Susan Kawaguchi, Wolf-Ulrich Knoben, and Rubens Kuhl.

I hereby ask you to circulate the EOI and related documents within your Stakeholder Group and Constituency. Also, I want to note that to allow time for the Selection Committee to submit its selections to be considered by GNSO Council at its meeting on 21 July, Expressions of Interest for the GNSO Liaison position will need to be submitted by interested members of the GNSO community no later than Friday, 15 July to the GNSO Secretariat. To assist candidates, the Selection Committee has created the attached “CSC Expression of Interest GNSO Template 17 June” that can be used to submit the requested information. A final point to call to your attention is that all Expressions of Interests that are received will be forwarded by the GNSO Secretariat to the CSC Selection Committee. Here are the key dates and dependencies from the attached timeline: 20 June Resend Call for GNSO Liaison Candidate Expressions of Interest 30 June Update on the CSC Liaison Selection – GNSO Council Meeting 15 July GNSO Liaison Candidate Expressions of Interest Due 15-20 July GNSO CSC Selection Committee Evaluates Candidates and Submits Selection to GNSO Council 21 July GNSO Council Selects Preferred Liaison Candidate and Alternate 22 July GNSO Liaison Candidate Selection Due to ICANN 23-28 July GNSO/ccNSO/RySG Consultation on CSC Membership 09 August GNSO Vote on CSC Membership (using procedures for voting outside a meeting) 15 August CSC Formation Please let us know if you have any questions and thank you for your assistance.

Due to the time limit and to the fact that people start travelling to Helsinki next week I’d like to suggest that the letter should come from James – I’ve put him on cc - and be sent directly to the SG-/C-chairs with cc to their related secretariats as well as to the council members. The letter should be adapted accordingly (see my suggested modifications attached). I think applications should be forwarded by the secretariat to the SelectCom only. After the 15 July deadline the entire list of applications should be published. Hopefully this doesn’t seem too complicated.

With that goal in mind, please see the draft email below for your review. As attachments to the email we might include: 1) the CSC Request for Appointment; 2) the EoI template; 3) the CSC GNSO Procedures; 4) the original message from James; and 5) the timeline. Let me know if there is anything else you think we should include, or if there is anything we should leave off. Also, let me know if one of you would like to volunteer to send this message, or if you would like me to send this on your behalf. In addition, note that the message says, “all Expressions of Interest that are received will be forwarded by the GNSO Secretariat to the GNSO Council list as they are received, as well as submitted to the CSC Selection Committee.” Please let us know whether you agree with this approach or whether you think the submissions should be made available only to the Selection Committee. Finally, you will note that we mention a CSC Update at the GNSO Council meeting in Helsinki on 30 June. It would be helpful if a member of the Selection Committee could give that update (noting that Donna is not on the Selection Committee). Please let us know if you would like to volunteer and I will be happy to assist you with any materials. It would be ideal if we could get this on out on Monday the 20th as that is the deadline for documents for the Helsinki GNSO Council meeting and as noted above this will be an item on the agenda at that meeting. Alternatively, staff can submit the attached documents separately to be posted by the Secretariat and alert the Council list so that at least the document deadline is met. Please respond with any comments or questions and I’ll address them right away, as well as any edits. Thank you for your assistance and I hope you have a nice weekend.
