Due to the community-wide interest in the NomCom review, we are reaching out to all SO/AC, SG/C leaders, informing them of the FAIIP’s publication. Please, share this information with your respective community at your earliest convenience. Following standards organizational review procedures, we currently expect the Board to resolve on next steps, including implementation, during ICANN64.
