[rssac-caucus] RSSAC Caucus Meetings 2016-2019
by Carlos Reyes Aug. 16, 2016

Aug. 16, 2016

Dear all, At the RSSAC Caucus meeting on 17 July at IETF96 in Berlin, Germany, there was a discussion about the schedule of RSSAC Caucus meetings. The RSSAC Caucus currently meets at every other/every even-numbered IETF meeting. There was general consensus that the RSSAC Caucus should also meet at ICANN meetings (but not Policy Forum/B format). The RSSAC Co-Chairs would like to propose the following framework for RSSAC Caucus meetings: · Keep the every other/every even-numbered IETF meeting cycle · Add ICANN Annual General Meetings/C format The proposed schedule for 2016-2019 is attached. All feedback is welcome. The next RSSAC Caucus meeting will be at ICANN57 in Hyderabad, India—exact date, time, and location will be confirmed soon. Thank you, Carlos (on behalf of Tripti Sinha and Brad Verd, RSSAC Co-Chairs) Carlos Reyes | Policy and Community Engagement Manager carlos.reyes(a)icann.org | +1 (202) 802-8019 ICANN | Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers 801 17th Street NW, Suite 400 | Washington, DC 20006

[rssac-caucus] RSSAC Liaison to the Nominating Committee
by Carlos Reyes Aug. 4, 2016

Aug. 4, 2016

Hello, RSSAC Caucus. Last week, the RSSAC Co-Chairs received a request from the ICANN Nominating Committee support staff to appoint a liaison for 2017. To learn more about the role, please refer to the attachment. The ICANN Nominating Committee support staff asked for a name by 5 August. The RSSAC Co-Chairs would like to acknowledge the request and still honor the established process. Therefore, the compressed timeline will require a shorter than preferred nomination period. (The relevant sections from “RSSAC000v2: Operational Procedures” are below for your reference.) With this notice, a one-week nomination period via this distribution list is now open. Nominations or self-nominations require a second. Nominees must then accept or decline their nomination and may provide more context for their decision. The nomination period will close at 23:59 UTC on 3 August. The RSSAC will then consider the slate of candidates on its 4 August teleconference. As you may recall, the RSSAC elected Alejandro Acosta to this role for 2016. Per the RSSAC Operational Procedures, Alejandro is eligible for re-election by the RSSAC. The RSSAC Co-Chairs appreciate your flexibility and consideration. Please do not hesitate to contact the RSSAC Co-Chairs or support staff with any questions or concerns. Best, Carlos 1.2.6.3 Outgoing RSSAC Liaison to the ICANN Nominating Committee The outgoing RSSAC Liaison to the ICANN Nominating Committee is specified in the ICANN Bylaws. The term for the outgoing RSSAC Liaison to the ICANN Nominating Committee shall be one year. A person may only serve for three consecutive terms. The eligibility status for a previous liaison is reset one year after having stepped down. The RSSAC must elect the outgoing RSSAC Liaison to the ICANN Nominating Committee according to the Outgoing RSSAC Liaisons Election Procedure (Section 1.2.6.6) from the members of the RSSAC Caucus. The outgoing RSSAC Liaison to the ICANN Nominating Committee acts as a conduit between the RSSAC and the ICANN Nominating Committee reporting on matters that need to be coordinated or communicated between the two bodies. The role requires discretion, management skills, and considerable time commitment. 1.2.6.6 Outgoing Liaisons Election Procedure One month prior to each election, qualified nominees will be accepted for the outgoing liaison position and announced on the RSSAC distribution list. During the meeting that includes election of an outgoing liaison position on its announced agenda, additional nominations will be accepted, and all nominees will indicate their intentions: to accept or to decline their nomination. In the event that only one candidate is standing for election, the RSSAC may elect the new outgoing liaison by acclimation. In the event that two or more candidates are standing for election, the presiding Co-Chair will call for a vote. Members will indicate their selection. A simple majority (half plus one) of the voting members will establish the new liaison. In the event a simple majority is not achieved due to having more than two nominees, the nominee with the least number of votes is eliminated and the voting is repeated with the reduced slate of names. The process is repeated until a nominee achieves a simple majority. In the event of a tie, a run-off election will occur with members indicating their selection. In the event of a second tie, the floor will be opened for discussion followed by a new vote with the simple majority designating the new liaison. The Co-Chairs will forward the name of the outgoing liaison-elect to the reciprocating body. If a vacancy exists in an outgoing liaison role, the RSSAC will elect a new outgoing liaison through this process.
