Launch of poll to evaluate GNSO Liaison to the GAC candidates
by Marika Konings Sept. 28, 2017

Sept. 28, 2017

Dear All, Unfortunately it has not been possible to identify a time this week to set up a call with the participation of Carlos to allow him to share his perspectives on which criteria are of key importance when considering the candidates for the GNSO Liaison to the GAC position. Following consultation with the chair, we have decided to move ahead and launch the survey for your input: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GACLiaison. Hopefully Carlos can weigh in on the list to help inform your response and/or share his perspectives when reviewing the survey results. We would like to request you to complete the survey by Wednesday 4 October at the latest. Please look out for a doodle poll to schedule a call either next week or the week thereafter, depending on your availability. As a reminder, you can find all the candidate materials here: https://community.icann.org/x/sQ0hB.

Selection of ATRT3 candidates
by Susan Kawaguchi Sept. 12, 2017

Sept. 12, 2017

Dear SSC members, We had a robust discussion today on the ATRT3 candidates and a lot of good perspectives were raised in the conversation. At the end of the call, we appeared to converge on a proposal to put forward the top seven candidates ranked in the poll (see https://www.surveymonkey.com/results/SM-87RXWCMK8/) with the top three as primary candidates with a guaranteed seat on the ATRT3 following GNSO Council endorsement: *Primary candidates (in order of preference)* Brian Cute (RySG) Wolfgang Kleinwächter (NCSG) Stéphane Van Gelder (RySG) *Additional candidates (in order of preference)* Tatiana Tropina (NCSG) Michael Karanicolas (NCSG) Adetola Sogbesan (BC) Erica Varlese (RySG) The group agreed to express to the GNSO Council concerns about the general lack of diversity (gender, geographic) in the pool of candidates for review teams and agreed to request the GNSO Council to encourage SG/C to promote calls for volunteers and make efforts to promote sufficient diversity in the pool of applicants for future application processes. Staff will be circulating a draft motion that is intended to serve as a placeholder until the SSC submits its recommendations so that these can potentially be considered during the upcoming Council meeting on 20 September for which the document deadline is 10 September. *If you do not agree with this proposal, please submit objections no later than 11 September COB. Note that a placeholder call is in the process of being scheduled for next week so that further discussion can take place if objections are received. * Best regards, SSC Leadership team
