[ALAC] IMPORTANT: NomCom Delegates

[Alan Greenberg]

I have been asked about the possibility of 
feedback on the returning candidates.

In preparation for calling for nominations and 
for the selection phase, I did ask the Chair of 
the NomCom for such feedback. I was told that the 
NomCom self-evaluates itself and all of the 
members and publishes the reports (and was 
probably the only ICANN group to do so) - see 
https://www.icann.org/nomcom2015. These 
evaluations will be available at the end of the 
selection process. Despite our desire to know how 
well our delegates are doing, he did not consider 
it fair to NomCom members for the NomCom 
Leadership Team to provide personal opinions outside of the evaluation process.
