Dear SSC members, Thank you for taking the time to complete the poll. Please find attached a summary of results. Note that there were two comments included in the responses, which the summary document does not include: * All the candidates are very good, except Houda Chihi who seems to lack the necessary experience to be a mentor * My decisions are based on what I see and have observed within the GNSO I look forward to seeing you all on the call at 15:00 UTC today.

As you know, SG/Cs are asked to reconfirm membership following the AGM each year. While most members from last year are continuing on in the coming year, there are a few changes: * NCSG: Sam Lafranco and Johan (Julf) Helsingius are replacing Renata Aquino Ribeiro and Rafik Dammak * RySG: Erica Varlese is replacing Maxim Alzoba (this was announced prior to the AGM) Welcome to the new members, and in Julf’s case, welcome back! In addition, I would like to share some details about the SSC’s next assignment. The GNSO has opened an Expression of Interest (https://gnso.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-20nov18-en.htm) for a GNSO nominated mentor for the ICANN Fellowship Program. The EOI will close on 7 December. The GNSO Council has asked the SSC to recommend a candidate for this position in time for the Council’s meeting on 20 December. In preparation for this selection process, please complete the following: * Review information about the assignment on the wiki: https://community.icann.org/x/RQLuBQ * Preview the draft survey and send a message to the SSC mailing list before 5 December if you have any concerns about the format: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Preview/?sm=DuBI8Uia_2Ba4uV1ADLOWSkRfOhBmTPcR... * Complete this doodle poll to help us schedule the next SSC meeting: https://doodle.com/poll/czpkek9374ef8zyg Thanks in advance.
