Hi Ozan,
Being eligible for reelection, I would like to continue serving as a Liaison to NomCom, and therefore I request to consider my name for the same. Although RSSAC Liaison is a non-voting member, but I have also developed a good synergy with other liaisons, i.e. SSAC and IAB/IETF liaisons to the NomCom, to present a comprehensive "technical" feedback and comments, where needed, during the NomCom selection process.
Thanks.
Amir

Dear RSSAC Caucus Members,
It is time to begin the selection process for the Outgoing RSSAC Liaison to the 2022 ICANN Nominating Committee (NomCom), in anticipation of a request from the ICANN NomCom Operations Team to submit the name of the RSSAC Liaison to the 2022 ICANN NomCom by mid-June 2021. The role is a one-year term beginning at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting to be held during ICANN72. Please refer to this page for more information about the Nominating Committee. I have also copied below the relevant sections from “RSSAC000v5: Operational Procedures” for your reference.
With this notice, a one-month nomination period via this distribution list is now open. Nominations or self-nominations will be accepted and require a second. Nominees must then accept or decline their nomination and may provide a statement with more context for their decision. The nomination period will close at 23:59 UTC on 27 May 2021. The RSSAC will then consider the slate of candidates at its 1 June teleconference.
As you may recall, the RSSAC appointed Amir Qayyum to this role in 2019 (for service in 2020 ICANN NomCom) and 2020 (for service in 2021 ICANN NomCom). Amir’s term will expire by ICANN72, the Annual General Meeting. Amir is eligible for re-appointment as per the RSSAC Operational Procedures.
The RSSAC Leadership appreciates your consideration. Please do not hesitate to contact the RSSAC Chair and Vice Chair or support staff with any questions or concerns.
Best,
Ozan Sahin on behalf of
Fred Baker, RSSAC Chair
Brad Verd, RSSAC Vice Chair
1.2.8.6 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 1.2.8.9) 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.
1.2.8.9 Outgoing RSSAC 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 acclamation. In the event that two or more candidates are standing for election, the RSSAC 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 runoff 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 RSSAC Chair 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.
