Thank you Evan. I accept. Regarding Eduardo's comment (wearing my hat as the drafter of the last several Operating Principles revisions), the Operating Principles are silent, so as long as there is not a significant number of objections, I would think that it would be deemed to have been decided by consensus.

As described in my "Adieu" message (

<http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/na-discuss/2015-April/008640.html>http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/na-discuss/2015-April/008640.html <http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/na-discuss/2015-April/008640.html> ), I suggested that this slot be filled by Alan, and received numerous comments supporting this plan of action.

In light of this, I now open nominations for this position, and nominate Alan Greenberg. I made a message to this effect yesterday, but did not sufficiently explain the required process in alignment with our procedures.

I am proposing that we waive our normal 30 day nomination period so that this selection can be complete on 9 of May, in time for our normally scheduled May NARALO meeting. If any ALS Representatives have a problem with this slightly shortened nomination period, please let me know.
