I’d hope that this could be addressed as Warren outlines (or similar) for the reasons he’s outlined.

On Mon, May 06, 2024 at 7:39 AM, Sander Steffann <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi everybody! I got some questions about this, so let me explain. Me having to resign from the NRO-NC / ASO-AC is because I am running for the RIPE NCC Executive Board later this month. To be eligible as a candidate I have to sign a statement that includes things like committing to follow the code of conduct, declaring that I never committed fraud etc. All good. But it also includes a statement (4.7) where I have to declare that I am not a member of the ASO AC. So, even to run for the board, I had to resign. This seems… unfortunate. I can understand why it would be a conflict for someone to serve in both of these roles *at the same time*, but it seems perfectly reasonable for someone in a position like your to declare that, if elected, they would step down from the ASO. I did have a look to see if I could figure out what the history of this is, but wasn't able to. Do we know if this was simply a corner case which was overlooked, or was there discussion (e.g preventing disruption, not wanting a small cohort of people swapping roles, preventing weird gaming, etc)? W Independent of the actual outcome. So here we are… This has put me in an awkward position. The ASO AC is working in very important things right now, and I feel that I’m making a contribution there, but I’m forced to resign. Therefore, I have promised the ASO AC that I will stay involved as an observer (the meetings of the ASO AC are public! Please make use of that!) and that I’ll stay active as a volunteer/advisor/whatever they need. And if I don’t get elected, I will definitely run for the ASO AC again!

The Council is now comprised of 11 members (out of the 15 initial ones: there are currently no representatives from the AfriNIC region). Our Operational Procedures<https://aso.icann.org/documents/operational-documents/operating-procedures-of-the-address-council-of-the-address-supporting-organization/> had been amended last November and the ASO AC is able to fulfil its functions with the remaining councilors. Constanze and I will be happy to present the Council activities during our next RIPE meeting in Krakow, and answer your questions. Looking forward to seeing you very soon (in-person or remotely).
