[ALAC] Question regarding PTI Board

[Alan Greenberg]

During the discussion on the CWG Proposal, there was a question of 
exactly what the proposal called for regarding the composition of the 
PTI Board. The wording in the proposal is:

>PTI Board
>
>As a separate legal entity, PTI will have a board of directors and 
>have the minimum statutorily required responsibilities and powers. 
>The construct of the PTI Board will be a range of 3-5 people to be 
>appointed by ICANN as the sole member of PTI. The PTI Board could be 
>comprised of three directors who are employed by ICANN or PTI (for 
>example, the ICANN Executive responsible for PTI, the ICANN CTO and 
>the IANA Managing Director), and two additional independent 
>directors. The two additional directors must be nominated using an 
>appropriately rigorous nomination mechanism (e.g. through the use of 
>the ICANN Nominating Committee).

As you can see, the proposal does not provide a hard and fast 
specification, but does make some general recommendations. If all 
people maintain their current responsibilities, and the "ICANN 
executive responsible for PTI" is the same executive who is now 
responsible for IANA, the three "ICANN directors" would be Elise 
Gerich, David Conrad and Akram Atallah.
