by Brenden Kuerbis Sept. 22, 2017

Dear NCSG Colleagues, Please take a moment to review this announcement, concerning a survey to collect community input for ICANN's ongoing Nominating Committee (NomCom) Review: https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2017-09-12-en *** More importantly, please set aside 10-15 minutes to complete the survey mentioned. This survey is the main instrument in the review process to express your opinion about ICANN's NomCom! It is important that noncommercial opinions are heard.*** You can access the survey directly here: http://nomcomsurvey.cloudssi.com/ The survey will close on 13 October. Background Information: The NomCom plays a critical role within ICANN. It appoints individuals to the ICANN Board, the Public Technical Identifiers (PTI) Board, the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) and Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) Councils, and the At-Large Advisory Committee. The NomCom organizational review is assessing how effectively the NomCom is operating, how well it is achieving its purpose, and if it is accountable to the multistakeholder community. Following the survey, the independent examiner will attend ICANN60 to conduct further review work. The draft final report of the independent examiner will be posted for public comment, and the review is expected to conclude by mid-2018.
