Interesting call, consistent with principles that haven't yet been ratified. It hardly seems consistent to open the call before the procedures for their evaluation have been determined. --Wendy Bret Fausett wrote:
CALL FOR STATEMENTS OF INTEREST | NORTH AMERICAN R.A.L.O. IN FORMATION | 18 MAY 2007
Consistent with Paragraph 10 of the Draft Operating Principles ("OP") for the North American RALO in Formation, I am pleased to open the Call for Statements of Interest for persons interested in serving on ICANN's At Large Advisory Committee. Consistent with Paragraph 9 of the OP, the only requirement for service is that a candidate live in the North American region.
This initial call for Statements of Interest is to elect two (2) members of the ALAC. One person will serve a two year term and the other will serve a one year term. The ALAC members will be elected by the voting members of the NARALO, only if and after its members ratify the Operating Principles now out for a vote. Each year hereafter, the NARALO will elect one (1) person.
This Call for Statements of Interest will remain open from today, Friday, 18 May 2007 through and including Friday, 22 June 2007 (11:59 pm HST).
If you are interested in applying, please send an email to Nick Ashton-Hart (nick.ashton-hart (at) icann.org) and to me (bfausett (at) internet.law.pro) with the following information:
-- START --
(a) Your name: first name, FAMILY NAME (in capital letters)
(b) Your e-mail address.
(c) Your telephone number(s) and/or Skype/Yahoo!/Mac or other VOIP or Audio Chat ID.
(d) Your country of citizenship. If you hold multiple citizenships please state all.
(e) Your city and country of residence and your preferred mailing address.
(f) Education and professional background. Summarize your educational background, such as degrees achieved and the university(s) where you studied, and the three most recent places of employment and positions held.
(g) Internet Involvement and Interest in ICANN. Help us understand the skills and experience you would bring to the ALAC and how you would help the ALAC achieve its mission.
(h) Conflicts of Interest. Please refer to the ICANN Conflicts of Interest policy http://www.icann.org/committees/coi/coi-policy-04mar99.htm. This document is aimed at conflicts for ICANN Directors and Officers, but should provide guidance for all ICANN leadership positions. If you have had any relationship with an ICANN accredited registry or registrar (other than registering a domain name) or any organization that has been in dispute with ICANN, please describe that relationship here. Conflicts of interest are not necessarily disqualifying, since we anticipate that many experienced people may have such relationships.
-- END --
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL RESPONSES WILL BE PUBLIC AND WILL BE POSTED FOR REVIEW ON THE ALAC WEB SITE AND THE NA-RALO MAILING LISTS AS APPROPRIATE.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
