ANNOUNCEMENT: ICANN Call for Submissions of Interest for Leadership
              Positions is issued; submission deadline is 15 June 2005.

Dear Colleague,

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has just
posted a call for recommendations and statements of interest for leadership
positions on its Board of Directors and its Supporting Organizations.
Additional details, including the URL of the complete details and the
application form, are contained below.

I encourage each of you to 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 submit
a statement of interest directly.

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

Sincerely,

George Sadowsky,
Chair, Nominating Committee


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

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

     -  two 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).
 
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 may 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://www.icann.org/committees/nom-comm/formalcall-22apr05.htm

Applications will be handled confidentially and should be received by 12:00
GMT on 15 June 2005 for full consideration. Selections will be made in
October with service beginning in December 2005.
