Elections and NPOC website
Dear all, I looked at NPOC website to see how current election information can be found there. I may not have looked carefully enough but I didn't find anything. The front page talks about ICANN67 in Cancún as if it were in the future, and when I click "read more" under it I get to a post about ICANN64. There is https://npoc.org/npoc-elections/ but it contains nothing useful. I can't find the current charter there either, only v2.0, which still hasn't been officially approved AFAIK. GNSO page about NPOC is also out of date: https://gnso.icann.org/en/about/stakeholders-constituencies/ncsg/npoc ... as is the icannwiki page: https://icannwiki.org/Not-for-Profit_Operational_Concerns_Constituency The (other!) wiki page that has actual information about current elections is all but impossible to find unless you know where it is, no link to it from NPOC home page nor from the above icannwiki page and even Google has hard time finding it. Kudos to Maryam for keeping it up to date though: https://community.icann.org/display/NPOCC/Elections+2020 It would be nice to have at least a link to that from NPOC homepage as well as from icannwiki. It would also otherwise make a good impression if the homepage was kept current rather than talking about past meetings as forthcoming. -- Tapani Tarvainen
Many thanks Tapani. Although it has been an unwritten norm to have the election documents posted on the wiki than the website as it the culture of other Constituency. I will go ahead and update the website with the required information. Many thanks for pointing this out and apologies for the inconvenience.

Raoul /Joan will be in the best position to provide information on the approval of the charter. GNSO page about NPOC is also out of date:
