From: George Sadowsky <george.sadowsky@attglobal.net> Date: July 25, 2007 5:23:16 PM EDT Subject: Choosing representatives for ICANN's 2008 Nominating Committee
All,
I am writing to you on behalf of the ICANN 2008 Nominating Committee Chair, who has not yet been chosen by the ICANN Board of Directors.
The purpose of this message is to initiate the selection of individuals from each of your individual constituencies who will serve, according to the ICANN by-laws, on the 2008 Nominating Committee.
There are 23 members of the Nominating Committee, 17 of whom are voting members. The by-laws state that a voting member may serve at most two consecutive years, whereas a non-voting member may serve any number of terms.
The composition of this year's committee, including the contacts used in late 2006 to obtain the name of the designated committee member, is given below. Some of the contacts have been updated to reflect changes in the internal organization of various constituencies.

* Incumbent has served two consecutive terms ** Position rotates among TLG (2007), W3C (2006) and ITU (2005) *** Due to resignation of Chair Eugenio Triana in May 2006
Nominating Committees have historically held two face-to-face meetings. Last year, we were able to have the first such meeting in Sao Paolo in December immediately after ICANN's Annual General Meeting. This acceleration of the schedule compared to previous years was really enormously helpful in allowing the Committee to function in a more orderly and effective manner, and I would very much like to preserve this advantage for the next Chair.
With this background, I request the following of all of you. Please choose your candidate for 12008 NomCom membership as soon as is practical, and not later than the end of September 2007. Please ensure that the person is willing to serve, and is willing to attend the first face-to-face committee meeting in Los Angeles during November 2-4, 2007. Candidates are welcome to attend the entire ICANN meeting also during October 29-November 2. Travel and subsistence expenses are paid for all committee members who do not have other sources of support.
I would appreciate it very much if you would acknowledge receipt of this message, letting me know that you are (or are not) the right person to initiate action within your constituency, as well as whether you anticipate any difficulty in identifying a suitable and willing candidate by the end of September. If you are not the right person to initiate this action, I would appreciate your forwarding this message to the right person and copying me.
Thanks in advance for helping next year's committee get off to a good start!
Best regards,
George Sadowsky
