ISPCP members Following the conclusion of last year's NomCom there is now a need to appoint a new ISPCP representative to the ICANN Nominating Committee for the period 2011-2012. The appointee will be requested to commence work at the next ICANN meeting in Senegal. The following election process will enable the ISPCP to comply with that requirement. Nomination period: Tuesday 30 August to Friday 2nd September ending 17.00 hours UTC Announcement of nominated candidates: Saturday 3rd September. Voting period; Monday 5th September to Thursday 8th September, ending at 17.00 UTC. Voting results announced Friday 9th September. . All Nominations will require a proposer and a seconder in order to qualify. . All ISPCP voting members will be allowed one vote. . If only one candidate is nominated they will be declared 'elected' after the nomination period ends. . In the event of more than one candidate standing the nominated member with the most votes will be elected. Please forward all nominations and seconder information to the full ISPCPP list ispcp@icann.org with the message header 'ISPCP NOMCOM nomination'. Information on how to vote will be sent to the ISPCP list once the nomination period is over. If anyone requires more information on the work of the Nominating Committee and what is required to serve on that committee please contact me privately. I'll be pleased to offer advice after serving as the ISPCP rep for the past two years. Tony
