Open for competition are *TWO* ALAC position or if are interested *THREE* Board positions. Note one seat each will be open to competition as well ie. GNSO, cCNSO so if you have any good candidates please let them know Please note that the NOMCOM Committee will post its first call for SOIs from potential candidates on November 8, 2012, *Deadline is May 1, 2013* More information to be posted at the NOMCOM information page Link to a summary PDF file ( A 2013 pdf is forthcoming) http://nomcom.icann.org/nomcom-flyer-2012-en.pdf -- Glenn McKnight mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com skype gmcknight twitter gmcknight Http://www.globalcatalysts.com http://newsocialmedia.wordpress.com
