The deadline for nominations for the ETF Delegate to the ICANN 2025 Nominating Committee has been extended until Tuesday, 2024-11-05. Please see below for more details.
- The IAB (on behalf of the IETF) has been asked to supply a member to the 2025 ICANN Nominating Committee (NomCom). Suzanne Woolf has recently filled this role for the IETF community and is ineligible to continue; the IAB thanks her for her service. The IAB would therefore like to ask the community for volunteers to serve on the ICANN NomCom. The IAB will appoint one person for a two- year term. If you are interested in serving on the ICANN NomCom, please send a short e-mail to [email protected] and [email protected] with your motivation and information concerning your familiarity with the IETF and ICANN. Alternatively, if you know of someone who may be a good fit for this position, please send the name and email address by e-mail to [email protected] and [email protected]. The IAB is looking for a diverse pool of candidates. The deadline for nominations or volunteers is 23:59 UTC on Tuesday, 2024-11-05. After asking for community input on the candidates, the IAB will select from the available candidates. The IAB shall take into account candidates' familiarity with ICANN and the IETF (including their roles and processes), though the selected candidate will serve on the ICANN NomCom on personal title. The ICANN NomCom process itself is governed by the ICANN bylaws [1]; the relevant section can be found in Article 8. In addition, each NomCom determines a number of its own operational procedures, including the role of the NomCom in recruiting and selecting candidates for ICANN leadership positions. Please see the full NomCom job description[2] for more details. Based on the experience of previous volunteers, the time commitment is significant. The delegate should be able to join monthly teleconferences. Note: The NomCom's workload will increase significantly during the candidate assessment process. Conference calls are held more frequently during this time as well (typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to three hours). All NomCom delegates should have the ability to travel to and participate in ICANN Public meetings and NomCom meetings when requested. If travel is restricted, then NomCom delegates will meet virtually. NOTE: ICANN may cover travel and hotel costs for a pre-determined number of days at each of the 3 consecutive ICANN meetings under prevailing ICANN policies. For more details, please see the IAB Statement on Liaison Compensation[3]. The 2025 NomCom will be selecting people to fill the following positions: • Three members of the ICANN Board of Directors • One member of the PTI Board of Directors • Three regional representatives to the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) – one each from the Africa region; the Asia, Australia, and Pacific Islands region; and the Latin America and the Caribbean region • Two members of the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council – one representing the Contracted Parties House (voting) and one representing the Non-Contracted Parties House (voting) • One member of the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) Council On behalf of the IAB, Cindy Morgan IAB Executive Administrative Manager [1] https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article8 [2] https://wiki.ietf.org/en/group/iab/ICANN_NomCom_Job_Description [3] https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iab-statement-on-liaison-compensation/ _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
