ICANN Nominating Committee, Call for Statements of Interest for  
Leadership Positions
Submission deadline 1 May 2007

<http://nomcom.icann.org>

ICANN's 2007 Nominating Committee has just posted a call for  
statements of interest for leadership positions on its Board of  
Directors and its Supporting Organizations.

Please read the material below and to consider who might be  
appropriate and strong candidates for such submissions, and to make  
recommendations of suitable individuals.  Interested individuals may  
also submit a statement of interest directly. Self-nominations are  
encouraged.

Please feel free to redistribute this message to any and all relevant  
individuals and groups.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~oOo~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ICANN Nominating Committee invites Statements of Interest from  
the community as it seeks qualified candidates for the following  
positions:

     -  three members of the ICANN Board of Directors;

     -  two members of the Council of the Generic Names Supporting
        Organization (GNSO);

     -  one member of the Council of the Country-Code Names
        Supporting Organization (ccNSO); and

     -  three members of the At Large Advisory Committee (ALAC), for
        Africa, Asia Pacific and Latin America and Caribbean regions.

Those individuals selected by the Nominating Committee will have a  
unique opportunity to work with accomplished colleagues from around  
the globe, address intriguing technical coordination problems and  
related policy development challenges with diverse functional,  
cultural, and geographic dimensions, and gain valuable insights and  
experience from working across these boundaries of knowledge,  
responsibility and perspective.

Additionally, those selected will gain the satisfaction of making a  
valuable public service contribution. Placing the broad public  
interest ahead of any particular interests, they will help ensure the  
stability and security of the Internet for critically important  
societal functions.

These voluntary positions are not remunerated, although direct  
expenses incurred in the course of duty will be reimbursed. These  
positions may involve significant international travel, including  
personal presence at periodic ICANN meetings, as well as regular  
telephone and Internet communications.

Candidates should be women and men with a high level of  
qualifications and experience with an international outlook including  
some familiarity with the Internet. They should be prepared to  
contribute to the collective decision-making process among ICANN's  
constituencies, supporting organizations and advisory bodies.

Selection criteria, eligibility factors, roles of each position,  
application procedure, and contacts are posted at:

   <http://nomcom.icann.org>

Applications will be handled confidentially and should be received by  
1 May 2007 for full consideration. Selections will be made before 2  
October 2007 with service beginning at the close of ICANN's General  
Meeting, 2 November 2007.
