We have been discussing re-activating the New gTLD WG for quite some
time, and did so again in Hyderabad. We have two volunteers to co-chair
the group (now the <u>At-Large gTLD WG</u>), John Laprise and Seun
Ojedeji. Following a discussion with the ALT and with the two candidates,
I would like to propose that the ALAC agree to name them as co-chairs of
the At-Large gTLD WG.<br><br>
Both John and Seun are relatively new to the world of new gTLDs, but both
have agreed to work to get up to speed (with mentors) and to join the
relevant GNSO WGs <br><br>
The next steps would be:<br><br>
- Draft a mission statement for the WG<br>
- Put out a call for members <br>
- Schedule the first meeting, which will be a level-set of where we have
come from and current processes<br><br>
<br>
<b><u>With this message, I am initiating a Consensus Call of the ALAC
</u></b><u>to appoint John Laprise and Seun Ojedeji (in alphabetic order) as
Co-Chairs of the At-Large gTLD WG.<br><br>
</u>The Consensus Call will end at 23:59 on Monday Wednesday, 19 December
2016.<br><br>
If there are any questions of comments, please direct them to either this
list or to me directly. <br><br>
Although messages indicating support are welcome, they are not necessary.
This Consensus Call will be deemed to have succeeded in the absence of
significant opposition (greater than 20% as specified by ALAC RoP
12.3.3.1).<br><br>
Alan<br>
