RE: [gnso-arr-dt] Some ideas for a process for GNSO endorsement of AoC Review Team Volunteers

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ICANN's call for volunteers has already gone out.  I do not believe that
time will allow for a GNSO call for volunteers so it is important for
all of us to spread the word and encourage volunteers from various
geographical  regions and of different gender.

        Caroline,
        you make a good point, to know if they step forward or not, a
call for volunteers can be released and then we will have a sense of the
amount of candidates and their regions, gender and qualifications.
        Regards

                Of course quality candidates, male and female from
across the globe, exist. But my point is that we don't want to find
ourselves in a straitjacket if they choose not to step forward. The
review process is a very onerous task to take on and there may be less
candidates presenting themselves than we think. Therefore, I feel it is
best to set diversity guidelines only at the SO level.   


                Kind regards

                There are many highly qualified professionals from
different parts of the world, men and women, there should be no
compromise with the quality of candidates if they are selected
considering their kowledge, background and experience.

                        I am less convinced. I definitely think that
best efforts should be made to acheive geographic and gender
representation but not if that compromises the quality of candidates
which is paramount.
                       
                        SOs should be encouraged to think about
diversity but ultimately, the Selectors make that particular call, no?

                                Hi Chuck,
                       
                                I don't think that we can compromise in
that point as the ongoing internationalization of ICANN is critical and
I guess that is subject to accountability too.
                                with a real constraint, we may urge SGs
to involve their members from less-represented regions.
                                the same case may happen somehow for
gender balance too.
                       
                                Regards
                       
                                Rafik
                       
                                2010/2/4 Gomes, Chuck

                                        Thanks Rafik.  How would you
suggest changing the process?  The proposed wording is: "No more than
two volunteers should come from the same geographical region."  The key
word is "should"; that was intentional because if there are not
qualified, volunteers from enough geographic regions, what would we do?
The goal would be to not have more that two from any one region, but
that may not be achievable.
                                       
                                        Chuck

                                                         "have less than
three geographic regions represented. ".
                                                       
                       
                       
                                                I am uncomfortable with
this point because in practice some regions wasn't enough represented
and this will allow the status quo for RT.
                       
                                                if it is not late, no
objection for extension.
