This draft survey is very similar to the one used last year for the original ATRT3 selection process, but this time it will include names of those from the previous selection process who are still available as well as any new candidates who submit applications by the 30 October deadline. A preview of the draft survey is available here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Preview/?sm=p9OjvjvM1SeKr_2B9KF6S8N6RUDcci_2… If you have any concerns about the format of this survey, please raise them on list before the application deadline of October 30. After that, staff will fill in the candidate names and open the survey for your input. Note that we have not yet received any new applications through the EOI process, but we will post them as they are received so you can get a head start on reviewing them. You may want to refresh your memory on the existing candidates from the last selection process. All of the relevant materials are and will continue to be posted here: https://community.icann.org/x/rg_8BQ Kind regards, Emily From: Emily Barabas <emily.barabas(a)icann.org> Date: Friday, 12 October 2018 at 10:23 To: "gnso-ssc(a)icann.org" <gnso-ssc(a)icann.org> Subject: Upcoming selection process - ATRT3 replacement candidates Dear SSC members, The GNSO Council has asked the SSC to take on a selection process in the coming weeks related to the re-scheduled start of the Third Review of ICANN Accountability and Transparency (ATRT3)<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2017-01-31-en>.

The GNSO has been asked to finalize its slate of candidates by 31 October, but we are working to find a little more flexibility in this deadline. Some time has passed since the original call for volunteers, and the GNSO is now asking the SSC to ensure that the GNSO has a full slate of candidates to put forward. At a minimum, two of the original primary candidates and at least one of the additional candidates will need to be replaced: Original primary candidates: Wolfgang Kleinwaechter (NCUC): Available Brian Cute (RySG): Replacement needed Stéphane Van Gelder (RySG): Replacement needed Original secondary candidates: Dr. Tatiana Tropina (NCUC): Replacement needed Michael Karanicolas (NCUC): Available Adetola Sogbesan (BC): Available Erica Varlese (RySG): Available The SSC may also choose to re-evaluate the full slate of secondary candidates in light of new applications to ensure balance of skills and experience in the pool of candidates.

Alternate for ATRT3 Selection
by Erica Varlese Oct. 24, 2018

Oct. 24, 2018

Hi all, I'll be replacing Maxim Alzoba as the RySG representative after Barcelona when he takes his seat as a GNSO Councilor. I'm very much looking forward to working with you all. As per the Charter, I wanted to reach out to the group regarding the upcoming ATRT3 review process. As I'm one of the candidates, I will need to abstain from the process to avoid a conflict of interest. Fortunately, Maxim has offered to replace me during this process and I would like to suggest him as my alternate for the ATRT3 selection. We are in the process of asking the RySG Executive Committee for a letter to confirm their support of Maxim. If there's anything I'm missing or anything additional we need to finalize Maxim as my alternate, please do let me know. Much appreciated, Erica Erica Varlese | .blog Shepherd @ KKWT Email: erica(a)my.blog Skype: evarlese
