Dear All:

I have pasted below the suggested revisions for the election procedures for  
SCI Chair and Vice Chair positions.  I have also attached a redlined version 
for your ease of review.

Chair and Vice Chair Elections

Only the primary
members of the Standing Committee (see description below) shall be eligible to
run and vote for Chair and Vice Chair.  The
Chair and Vice Chair shall serve for a 1-year term with the option to continue
for a second 1-year term.   For the
avoidance of doubt, time served as Vice Chair shall not prohibit the Vice Chair
from serving as Chair.  The Chair and
Vice Chair are expected to act in a neutral manner and avoid any situation
where a conflict of interest may arise for example as a result of exercising
another function or role within ICANN.
In
December of each year, the SCI will ask for volunteers from its primary members
to serve as Chair and Vice Chair.  If the
current Chair or Vice Chair is not term limited and wishes to continue for a
second year, no election will be held.  If
there is more than on volunteer for either position,  the following procedure 
will be followed:

1.     If there are only two candidates for Chair and no
candidates for Vice Chair, the GNSO Secretariat will conduct an election via
e-mail ballot and tally the results after one week. The losing candidate will
have the option of accepting the position of Vice Chair.  If he or she elects 
not to accept this
position, the SCI will ask for volunteers for Vice Chair; or  
 
2.     If there are more than two candidates for the Chair
or one or more candidates for Vice Chair, the GNSO Secretariat will conduct an
election for each position via e-mail ballot and tally the results after one
week.
