I tend to agree with Bret -- maybe someone from the potentially new ALS, New York ISOC, might like to stand for election, if I were to be elected to the board liaison post. My understanding for the timing, correct me if I'm wrong, is that the board liaison candidates are supposed to make their case to the ALAC at the Paris meeting, with the vote shortly after the meeting, so we will know one in advance of the other... On the other hand, I have heard there's increasing concern to try to limit travel costs, so to some, there is appeal for having people wear two hats. I don't think that should influence us one way or the other, but just FYI. -----Original Message----- From: na-discuss-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org on behalf of Bret Fausett Sent: Sun 6/8/2008 12:30 PM To: NA Discuss Subject: Re: [NA-Discuss] NARALO elections (was Re: 08/10 - Representativeto ALAC) My only thought here is that both positions are travel-funded by ICANN, and we maximize the ALAC's footprint at ICANN meetings by having two people travel, instead of only one. -- Bret On Jun 8, 2008, at 7:11 AM, Evan Leibovitch wrote:
As for Bret's point about Beau's potential to act in both capacities (NARALO rep to ALAC _and_ ALAC rep to the Board), I have received clarification from the ALAC chair. No regulations exist to prevent one from holding both positions. Personally I believe that the two jobs each present enough of a workload to suggest that they would be best done by two different people. But it would be Beau's call, should he become elected as ALAC's Board rep.
