Colleagues:
We have reached the point where we have agreement on 1 chair plus two vice chairs.
We have the following volunteers for the positions: Wolf-Ulrich Knoben Patrik Fälström Mohamed El Bashir Keith Davidson Alissa Cooper
Please cast three specific votes - one for the chair and one for each vice chair. Please make sure to designate the chair vote. We will tabulate the results.
The votes may be made to the list (preferably) or may be made directly to me (joseph.alhadeff@oracle.com). Please place ICG Officer Vote in the subject line so it will be easier to track. Since this process has been underway for quite some time, I am asking that votes be cast by August 18th 23:59 UTC time so that we can announce the results on our call. Whatever the results, I suggest that, as acting chair, Alissa chair the call on the 19th.
Finally, I would remind everyone of the discussions related to diversity, both organizational and geographic and would ask people to keep those important elements in mind when voting. As we finalize the consensus process I will finalize edits to the officer responsibilities document, just to make sure that the description is as accurate and complete as possible.
Best regards-
Joe

Hi Kavouss,
I’m not sure that I understand your question, but the process is as I outlined in my mail next week: after 23:59 UTC, we will have the final list of volunteers and Joe will run a selection process for both vice-chair slots and the chair slot.

Dear Alissa, What about the Vice chairs ' Kavouss
2014-08-11 21:34 GMT+02:00 Jon Nevett <jon@donuts.co>: Agreed. It appears that we have consensus with just a few holdouts. Let's move on. Thanks. Jon

I would also support the consensus call here. I believe the overwhelming majority of the group supports 1+2, and that the minority objections to it pertained to regional/citizenship diversity. I thought that these concerns had been met by the withdrawal of K. Drazek as a candidate and the understanding that the +2 would be from different regions.

Hi Jean-Jacques,

Sorry Alissa,
I'm afraid there is neither clarity nor consensus on the way forward on this point, and that the deadline will have to be extended.
As interim chair, I made the consensus call last week, in my email below. It continues to stand, and I believe I have the support of the bulk of the group behind me. Consensus involves accommodating objections to the best extent possible while maintaining broad support within the group. It does not require unanimity and cannot be held up by a small minority of objectors.
So we are on track to get the selection going once the deadline expires later today.
Thanks, Alissa
Best regards, Jean-Jacques.

Hi all,
Thanks to everyone for engaging on the topic of chair structure. Taking in all of the in-person and email discussion thus far, I think we have a viable path forward. My observations are:
1. In response to the compromise I suggested on July 31 [i], the group demonstrated broad support for a 1+2 structure, with an objection from Jean-Jacques and ALAC. This included support from people who had previously stated preferences for other structures, and even support from people who had previously said they could not live with 1+2. This is what some people might call “consensus” and what I would normally describe as “rough consensus” in support of 1+2.
2. We have very strong support for a “1+something” chair structure, following the recent mail from Jean-Jacques [ii]. I don’t think we have anyone objecting to 1+something at this point.
3. We have had lengthy discussions on the list about geographic diversity. We have very strong support in the group for having geographically diverse participation throughout the stewardship transition plan development process. We have differences of opinion within the group about the extent to which that diversity must be required to extend to the chairs of the ICG.
4. We have a demonstrated need to agree within the ICG about the methods, both electronic and in-person, that we will use to arrive at and judge consensus within this group going forward.
Taking the above into consideration, let's proceed as follows:
Go forward with a 1+2 structure — 1 chair and 2 vice-chairs. I believe the current list of people who have volunteered to serve in these roles is:
Russ Housley Patrik Fälström Mohamed El Bashir Keith Drazek Alissa Cooper
(I do not think we need re-confirmations from the above people because they have mostly re-confirmed already on the list at some point over the last several weeks, but if any of the above listed people wants to withdraw, please say so.)
Taking the suggestion from Jean-Jacques, I think we should give people a few more days to volunteer. So if you would like to volunteer, please make that known on the list by August 11, 23:59 UTC.
On August 12, Joe, who previously agreed to detail the chair roles and run the selection process [iii], and Wolf-Ulrich, who has agreed to help Joe while Joe is traveling, will launch the selection process. In making their selections, ICG participants should take the geographic diversity discussions we’ve had into account.
Joe and Wolf-Ulrich will also begin drafting a proposal that describes the methods the group will use for arriving at and judging consensus going forward, and will make that proposal available to the group for discussion when it is ready.
Thanks, Alissa
