The Draft Final Report of the NomCom Review Finalization Working Group : in English : http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-3-03oct09-en.htm http://www.icann.org/en/reviews/nomcom/nomcom-review-finalization-wg-draft-r... and in Spanish : http://www.icann.org/es/public-comment/public-comment-200911-es.html#nomcom-... http://www.icann.org/es/reviews/nomcom/nomcom-review-finalization-wg-draft-r... From the report : "the Working Group has finished its deliberation on all recommendations, with the notable exception of recommendations 10 and 13. Recommendation 10 covers the nominating committee’s size and composition. Recommendation 13 is the suggestion that nominating committee chairs should serve as non‐voting observers for a year before taking on the chair’s full responsibility. For these two recommendations, we ask for input into further deliberations, and anticipate significant changes beyond what is in this report." Recommendation 10 includes a possible suggestion for ALAC voting delegates to NomCom be reduced from 5 (one from each region) to 3 (rotating among the regions) On the LACRALO call on November 19th, concerns were expressed that this suggestion would not be in the interest of At-Large. There is currently a draft response on the NARALO mailing list regarding recommendation 10 at http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/na-discuss_atlarge-lists.icann.org/... However, either consensus with the draft NARALO statement or our own comments/suggestions by LACRALO need to be finalised by November 23rd in time for the ALAC conference call on November 24th. --- Dev Anand Teelucksingh LACRALO Secretariat
