Hi,

no matter what bylaws and MoU say, I support a broad interpretation of 
diversity including gender, geo-political culture and political 
perspectives. If we have the opportunity to cover several dimensions of 
diversity, why would we not do this?
Regarding experience with ICANN, if experience would principally count 
more than diversity, old hands would always prevail and newcomers never 
had a chance. Moreover, ALAC like the ICANN board can and should combine 
a mixture of experienced and new members.
