RE: [gnso-arr-dt] Call for Applicants for the Position of Volunteer ReviewTeam Member

["Tim Ruiz" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd prefer we put some limit on it if we can. I've already heard from
half a dozen individuals who want on this first AoC team. The Council
could end up with dozens of candidates to vet.

What if any constituency or SG is able to put forward one or multiple
volunteers and the Council simply vets them for conformity with the
criteria without any restriction on number of candidates that may be put
forward by the GNSO after such vetting?

I agree with Kristina. And if one of the SGs or Constituencies want to
put forward one of the NCAs that's fine. Or I personally would be okay
if they put forward someone not necessarily a formal member of any GNSO
body if they want. But I think whoever is put forward by the GNSO should
not only meet the AoC stated qualifications but should be familiar with
the GNSO process as well.

I disagree on both counts.

First, it is my understanding that NCAs are not GNSO members. That's why
they are appointed by the NomCom in the first instance.

Second, if we go with a House selection, we have only 2 candidates. I
believe the GNSO's interests are best served by presenting a wider
number of candidates, and going by SG facilitates that goal. As to
Bill's point about exclusion, I understand the concern. However, it is
my understanding that many of the not yet-constituency participants are
actually already members of an SG, constituency, or ALAC (dotBerlin -
potential City TLD constituency is a BC member). Are the members of the
Consumer and CyberSafety constituencies-in-formation NCUC members or
NCSG members? I think the other potential constituencies may be
"accounted for".

For sure, Olga, the NCAs should be treated the same fair way as the
other potential GNSO applicants. So let's think about nominations on
houses' level:
- each house may nominate 1 volunteer for each RT (including ranking
according to their interests)
- the selectors should select from this pool that each house covers 2
RTs

Fair? Comments?

Wolf-Ulrich
