[APAC-Discuss] FW: Announcement: At-Large Board Director Slate of Candidates Selected by the BCEC and Next Steps

Wed Jan 29 16:14:01 UTC 2014

Hi everyone

Just to confirm what Siranush has said. Any candidate to be proposed for
addition to the slate of candidates for the election of the 15th member of
the Board from the ALAC, must come from among those who have already
presented their EOIs to the Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC). 

The BCEC has selected its best 5 candidates for election. However, a RALO
can add one of the others who missed out through the BCEC process, to the
slate if 2 other RALOs support that candidate's addition. It is important
that you read the PUBLIC INFORMATION about all the candidates when it
becomes available on the BCEC workspace. 

The Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC) met today (UTC1500) and
an information teleconference will be held on February 7 to answer any
queries about the process. There will be 2 sessions to cover the time zones.

Once the information becomes available about the candidates, I would suggest
that we hold an APRALO meeting to discuss the candidates. As well as
discussing those who have been selected for election, it would also give us
an opportunity to discuss those who were not selected so that Siranush can
report back to the other RALOs about  APRALO's intentions regarding
additions to the slate, if any. 

Regards
Maureen
(APRALO representative on the BMSPC)

Dear APRALO colleagues,
In accordance with the agreed schedule for Board Selection (Seat 15) (see
the timeline here -
https://community.icann.org/display/ABMS/At-Large+Board+Direct+Selection+Tim
eline+2014) on January 28 ICANN staff officially announced the names of the
slate of candidates to fill Seat #15 of the ICANN Board - the official wiki
page is here -
https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?spaceKey=ABMS&title=At-Lar
ge+Board+Member+Slate+of+Candidates+2014.
First of all I would like to congratulate all selected candidates, but
particularly Rinalia Abdul Rahim, for being included in the slate from
At-Large Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC), who represents our
region.
According to the timeline, now it is the time for each RALO to identify
additional names if any. Thus, with this e-mail I raise the call on APRALO
list to ask whether APRALO members wish to suggest or add any names (out of
submitted names, the list you can see below) to be included in the final
slate of candidates or should someone's name petitioned for inclusion by us.

Please, note, that additional candidates should be OUT of applicants who
submitted EOIs but were not selected by the BCEC, meaning from the list of
already applied candidates, and the name whom we wish to add should be later
supported by two other RALOs.
The deadline for identifying new candidates is February 11, but to allow us
the sufficient time for further processing, the deadline for this call is
February 7, 23:59 UTC.
Please, send me directly all your suggestions within the deadline. If no
names or objections will be received by February 7, then we will announce
that APRALO region has no objections with the final slates of candidates.
Thank you very much for your cooperation and looking forward hearing from
you.
Sincerely,
Siranush
