Hi Susan,

 

The next step is to prepare a motion for the Council’s consideration, which staff can go ahead and draft for your review. Staff is working with Council to determine whether this can go on the Council agenda for the 29 November meeting or whether it will need to go to electronic vote to get a faster result. 

 

Kind regards,

Emily

Subject: [Ext] Re: [Gnso-ssc] Final Selection of GNSO Candidates for ATRT3

 

Hello All,

Many SSC members have responded with no objection to the slate of candidates.  We did not receive any response on ranking candidates #4-7 but it may be fine to send these to the GNSO council unranked which would allow the Council and RT to add extra members based on the need for expertise and representation. 

 

If there are no objections to this let's go ahead and finalize the list.  

 

Emily - please remind me what the next steps are to send this to Council?  

 

Best regards, 

 

Susan

Dear SSC members,

 

Following our call today regarding selection of GNSO candidates for the ATRT3, we are seeking additional input on the mailing list from those members who were unable to attend the call. Please provide input no later than Thursday 8 November at 11:59 UTC. 

 

Members on the call today agreed that the primary task of the SSC should be to fill vacancies in the existing list of candidates rather than seeking to make major changes to the full slate of candidates. Based on individual SSC member evaluation of the candidates, SG/C endorsements, and discussion, and supported by poll results, members favored filling the two vacancies for primary candidates as follows. Note that the order does not matter for primary candidates. All will serve on the ATRT3: 

 

	Name	Type	Region	SG/C Affiliation
	Wolfgang Kleinwaechter	Existing 2017 candidate	Europe	NCUC (endorsement not possible in 2017 application round)
	Patrick Kane	New 2018 candidate, filling vacancy	North America	RySG (endorsed)
	Osvaldo Novoa	New 2018 candidate, filling vacancy	Latin America	ISPCP (endorsed)

 

The SSC also discussed the one vacancy in the list of additional candidates. The additional candidates may be selected by SO/AC leaders if there are remaining slots to be filled and/or to ensure diversity. The members on the call suggested filling the vacancy as follows. Note that members did not decide if the SSC should rank additional candidates in order of preference. If you have an opinion about whether and how to rank these candidates, please respond on list by EOD Thursday.

 

	Name	Type	Region	SG/C Affiliation
	Michael Karanicolas	Existing 2017 candidate	North America	NCUC (endorsement not possible in 2017 application round)
	Adetola Sogbesan	Existing 2017 candidate	Africa	BC (endorsement not possible in 2017 application round)
	Erica Varlese	Existing 2017 candidate, updated application submitted in 2018	North America	RySG (2018 updated application endorsed)
	Jacques Blanc	New 2018 candidate, filling vacancy	Europe	RrSG (endorsed)

 

Please raise any objections to the list of primary and additional candidates by Thursday 8 November at 11:59 UTC.

 

Kind regards,

 

Susan Kawaguchi
