Many of you know me from ICANN, many of you already volunteer time to ICANN - please excuse any redundancy with this request. And the "spam'ish" nature of sending to you all. Thanks. Adam.

Company: ICANN

Description: ICANN's NomCom is recruiting candidates. We are well into the recruitment period, deadline is May 1st (2007).

Leadership positions the NomCom's to fill this year:

* 3 seats on the ICANN Board of Directors
