> While I will not represent the NCSG in this WG, I am a member and currently 
> serve as the Chair of the NCSG Executive Committee and do represent them in 
> other groups such as the OSC.  In this role, while I do need to explain my 
> reasoning to the NCSG membership I am not bound in the positions I take.  Of 
> course if my positions were to start to run counter to the interests of the 
> NCSG as perceived by its membership, they may remove me from my seat on the 
> Executive Committee.  I would probably remove myself before that happened.

> 5. Describe any tangible or intangible benefit that you receive from 
> participation in such processes. For example, if you are an academic or NGO 
> and use your position to advance your ability to participate, this should be 
> a part of the statement of interest, just as should employment by a
> contracted party, or a business relationship with a non- contracted party who 
> has an interest in policy outcomes.

> As far as my university position goes, they could not care less about ICANN 
> and generally consider it an interference in my work.  In terms of my work in 
> the IGF, I am sure the knowledge I have about how things work in ICANN and 
> what goes on is an advantage.  Other than that, I think I am an 'ICANN 
> Addict', someone who cares about the organization in many respects and wants 
> to participate to make sure it comes out right.  As far as VI is concerned, 
> it is critical the GNSO come up with a policy rather quickly and come up with 
> a good policy  that has consensus.  This will be both interesting and 
> challenging.  I enjoy participating in things that are interesting and 
> challenging and I suppose that is also something I will get out of this 
> process.
