Dear Colleagues, With reference to the candidate that I have nominated - Osvaldo Novoa - since many of you may not have met him previously, I attach a brief bio for your information. Regards Tony Harris ----- Original Message ----- From: tony holmes To: ispcp@icann.org Sent: Monday, October 03, 2011 4:41 AM Subject: [ispcp] GNSO Council elections and ISPCP conference call Dear ISPCP members As you're aware a decision was taken to extend the nomination period for the GNSO Councillor's election. During the extended period additional nominations were made and submitted to the ISPCP list. We now need to proceed with the election process with the aim of concluding that prior to the meeting in Senegal. However as we already have an ISPCP Constituency call planned for Wednesday 5th October at 13.00 UTC, I'd like to propose the voting period should start after that call, commencing Thursday 6th October, and ending Wednesday 12th October at 23.00 UTC. That will enable us to discuss the process in more detail and still make the required deadline with ease. You'll receive call-in details for the Constituency call later today and I would encourage everyone to join. As well as discussing the election process we also need to firm up arrangements for the Constituency meeting in Senegal. Regards Tony
