It is time to begin the selection process for the Outgoing RSSAC Liaison to the 2024 ICANN Nominating Committee (NomCom). The role is a one-year term beginning at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting to be held during ICANN78 in October 2023. Please refer to this page<https://www.icann.org/nomcom2023> for more information about the Nominating Committee and read the NomCom Delegate Job Description attached. I have also copied below the relevant sections from “RSSAC000v7: Operational Procedures” for your reference.
With this notice, a four-week 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 Monday, 24 April 2023. The RSSAC will then consider the slate of candidates at its May teleconference.
As you may recall, the RSSAC appointed Hiro Hotta to this role in 2022 (for service in 2023 ICANN NomCom). Hiro’s one-year term will conclude by ICANN78, the Annual General Meeting.
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 Jeff Osborn, RSSAC Chair and Ken Renard, RSSAC Vice Chair
1.2.7.6 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 unless there are no other candidates for the position. 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 1.2.7.9) 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.
1.2.7.9 Outgoing RSSAC Liaison Election Procedure
One month prior to each election, nominations 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. The RSSAC uses ranked choice voting, as outlined in Section 1.4.1 for electing outgoing liaison positions. In the event that only one candidate is standing for election, the RSSAC may elect the new outgoing liaison by acclamation. 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. _______________________________________________ rssac-caucus mailing list rssac-caucus@icann.org<mailto:rssac-caucus@icann.org> https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/rssac-caucus
