RE: [npoc-voice] Re: Appointment of Ms. Cintra Sooknanan as Interim Vice-Chair of NPOC

["Carson, Michael" <Michael.Carson@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Caroline, I agree with your sentiments.

Alain and others, thanks for taking the steps necessary to expedite the 
appointment considering the circumstances.

It would be great if the issue of the membership process - which has bogged 
down our constituency for over a year and a half - was handled as quickly.  The 
constant handcuffing of our constituency around this issue by the NCSG is 
beyond troubling.

Dear Alain
I understand your concerns to make things moving fast. I would indeed have been 
beter to consult first but I am confident that the people you mentioned took a 
good decision in appointing Cintra.

I can live with this approach and this result as you mention this is 
exceptional.

Kind regards
Caroline

Dear all,

To repeat what has already been clearly stated:

1) Cintra was appointed as Acting Vice-Chair of NPOC to replace Lori Schulman 
who resigned for personal reasons (these are confidential and called for quick 
discretionary decision-making by myself); This was a fast track appointment 
decided exceptionally by NPOC-EC members in Toronto (Klaus, Marie-Laure, 
Eduardo and the undersigned, so 4 out of 5 seating EC members as Judy Branzelle 
was not available  for urgent consultations). This decision was made quickly to 
respond to the needs and request of Lori, again for confidential personal 
reasons. This was all explained on NPOC-Voice.
2) Given the pace at which NCSG-EC works, the NPOC appointee to NCSG-EC to 
replace Lori, which is not automatically Cintra but she is not excluded as a 
candidate, is less urgent and the NPOC membership needs to be fully consulted 
anyway, as always. This will first be discussed at NPOC's November monthly call 
with the membership at large and then posted on NPOC-Voice for nominations.

I can't think of a process that would be more open, transparent and accountable 
to the membership.

Best regards, Alain

Dear Cintra,

It appears from the below email from Alain that NPOC has not appointed you to 
the NCSG-EC.  He said that would be a separate appointment after he did some 
consultations.  So there seems to be some confusion as to just what role you 
have been appointed by NPOC.

The Vice-Chair of NPOC is not necessarily the NPOC representative on the 
NCSG-EC.

It is very important for NPOC to clarify what these roles entail and what is 
the process for making their appointments.  The process should be open and 
transparent and accountable to the membership, so these matters should be 
clearly explained as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Robin

Hi Robin,

Thanks for your kind words.

Cintra's appointment is interim until we can have elections.

The NPOC rep on NCSG EC will be separate and interim too until elections. I 
will advise soonest I have done all the necessary consultations.

I will shortly write to you separately on following up on NCSG-EC business as 
per our Toronto meeting.

Cheers, Alain

Hello Alain,

Good to see you in Toronto.  We make great progress there!

In addition to NPOC VP, will Cintra also replace Lori as NPOC representative on 
the NCSG Executive Committee?   Or will that be a separate appointment?

Thanks,
Robin

Dear All,

Thank you very much for your warm salutations and reception, it is my pleasure 
to serve in this role.

Many of you are aware that my engagement with ICANN has been directly aligned 
with NCSG's Charter in voicing and representing non-profit, non-commercial 
interests and Internet users. To this common end, I look forward to our working 
together and mutual support.

Best regards

Dear NPOC Colleagues,

Following the recently announced resignation of Lori Schulman for personal 
reasons, and until the NPOC election replacement process is duly completed, an 
interim Vice-Chair is being appointed. After comprehensive fast track 
consultations in Toronto, I have appointed Ms. Cintra Sooknanan of the Trinidad 
& Tobago ISOC Chapter to that position.

I am very pleased to welcome Cintra to the Executive Committee of NPOC. Cintra 
has been active in both NPOC  and At Large and her experience will be important 
to her new role in NPOC.

I am grateful to Cintra, as well as to Olivier Crépin-Leblond and Tracy 
Hackshaw for their collaboration and support in making this interim appointment 
possible.

Cintra will take up her new role and responsibilities effective immediately. 
Her first responsibility will be to join forces with Marie-laure and Poncelet 
in delivering the NPOC Side Session at IGF 2012 in Baku in a couple of weeks. 
Thereafter. he will second me as needed with regular NPOC duties and with 
special assignments as tasked from time to time.

Mandy, as requested in Toronto during the Internet Governance Landscape 
Session, I am please to advise you that NPOC will now have 3 representatives in 
Baku: Marie-laure Lemineur from Costa Rica, Poncelet Ileleji from The Gambia 
and Cintra Sooknanan from Trinidad and Tobago.

Please join me in wishing Cintra all the success needed!

Best regards, Alain
