[ALAC] CONSENSUS CALL: Appointment of IANA Transition CWG Member

[Alan Greenberg]

The Formally appointed Members of the IANA Stewardship Transition CWG were:

* AFRALO:  Seun Ojedeji
* APRALO:  Fouad Bajwa
* EURALO:  Olivier Crépin-Leblond
* LACRALO: Fatima Cambronero
* NARALO:  Eduardo Diaz

The people were selected by their respective RALOs and ratified by the ALAC.

Fouad has resigned due to his inability to fully 
fulfill the functions of the role due to ill health.

I requested that APRALO Leadership identify a 
replacement who was fully up-to-speed and could 
immediately assume the formal responsibilities of 
a Member. They have named Cheryl Langdon-Orr.

Cheryl is already a Participant in the CWG and 
has been a team leader of one of the major parts 
of the CWG activities, so there is no one who I 
could say is more qualified to assume the role. 
Cheryl is also a Member of the ICANN 
Accountability CCWG (and a team leader there as 
well!), and we had originally been reluctant to 
name the same person to both activities to ensure 
that they would not be overloaded. However this 
new title within the CWG will not increase her 
time-commitment and I feel there is no reason not 
to proceed with the formal appointment.

With this message, I am opening a formal 
Consensus Call on the ratification of Cheryl's 
appointment as a Member of the IANA Stewardship 
Transition CWG. Unless there is significant 
opposition raised prior to Wednesday, 25 February 
2015 at 23:59 UTC, I will inform the CWG 
leadership that Cheryl is the 5th ALAC Member of the CWG replacing Fouad Bajwa.
