>> Dear All,

>> To prepare for the selection of the Board Member selected by At-Large to

>>
>> According to the ALAC Rules of Procedure (2016) (see:
>> http://tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-2016-07), the two groups are the 2017 Board
>> Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC) and the 2017 Board Candidate
>> Evaluation Committee (BCEC). Please see ALAC Rules of Procedure (2016-07)
>> Section D.19 - Procedure for Making the Selection to fill Seat 15 on the
>> ICANN Board.
>>
>> *The deadline for applying to be members of both groups is 23:59 UTC on
>> Tuesday, 23 August 2016.*
>>
>>  If you are interested, or if you wish to nominate someone else, please
>> send a note to At-Large staff at staff at atlarge.icann.org
>> <staff at atlarge.icann.org%3c> specifying which committee(s) the

>> by the deadline.
>>
>> A record of all applications and nominations will be posted to either the
>> BMSPC Membership Selection 2017 Workspace (see:
>> https://community.icann.org/x/oAysAw) or the BCEC Membership Selection
>> 2017 Workspace (see: https://community.icann.org/x/hgysAw) as
>> appropriate. The full At-Large Board Member 2017 Selection Workspace is
>> available at: https://community.icann.org/x/CAWsAw).
>>
>>
>> *The RALO leadership is requested to send a list of their RALO's
>> supported candidates for each group to the Chair of the ALAC by 23:59 UTC
>> Tuesday, 30 August 2016. *
>> The ALAC will name the final membership soon after.
>>
>> The details of the two groups are:
>>
>> 1)      Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC)
>>
>> According to Article 19.2 of the ALAC Rules of Procedure (2016):
>>
>> "The ALAC shall name a Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC)
>> which shall oversee the entire selection process including the election
>> culminating the process but excluding those responsibilities specifically
>> retained by the ALAC or given to the Board Candidate Evaluation Committee.
>> The composition of the BMSPC will be regionally balanced and the committee
>> will be populated with two representatives of each region selected by both
>> the ALAC and the RALOs. For each region, one Alternate member will be
>> selected who can replace a member from the same region who for whatever
>> reason is not able to fully participate and such replacement will be at the
>> sole discretion of the BMSPC Chair in accordance with BMSPC guidelines. The
>> ALAC shall name a chair of the BMSPC."
>>
>> The group is open to both ALAC Members and to At-Large community members
>> and to RALO Leaders. However, the membership should include members of the
>> community with significant experience from the 2010 or 2014 Board Director
>> selected by At-Large process.  English will be the working language of this
>> group.
>>
>> *The group must be regionally balanced, with two representatives from
>> each of the five RALOs. Each RALO will also select an Alternate member in
>> the event one of the original members must be replaced.*
>>
>> *Please note that no member of the BMSPC may submit an Expression of
>> Interest (EOI) for the position of the Board Director selected by At-Large.*
>>
>> The ALAC will select the Chair of the BMSPC.
>>
>> The first meeting of the BMSPC will be scheduled for late August or early
>> September.
>>
>> 2)    Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC)
>>
>> The new ALAC Rules of Procedures state the following on the composition
>> and task of the BCEC:
>>
>> "19.3 The ALAC shall name a Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC)
>> to compile an initial slate of candidates for election to Seat 15. A new
>> BCEC consisting of two delegates selected by each of the RALOs plus a chair
>> selected by the ALAC will be convened for each Board seat selection
>> process. Each RALO shall also select an Alternate member who can replace a
>> member from the same region who for whatever reason is not able to fully
>> participate and such replacement will be at the sole discretion of the BCEC
>> Chair in accordance with BCEC guidelines"
>>
>> "19.4 The task of the BCEC is to identify applicants who would each make
>> an excellent Board Director. [19.4.1] Applicant selected by the BCEC must
>> meet the criteria specified in the ICANN Bylaws Article VI, Section 3 (
>> http://www.icann.org/en/about/governance/bylaws#VI-3). These criteria
>> include but are not limited to being: a) accomplished persons of integrity,
>> objectivity, and intelligence, with reputations for sound judgment and open
>> minds, and a demonstrated capacity for thoughtful group decision-making;
>> and b) persons with an understanding of ICANN's mission and the potential
>> impact of ICANN decisions on the global Internet community, and committed
>> to the success of ICANN. Moreover, the Director selected by the At-Large
>> Community must understand the mission of At-Large and the needs of the
>> global community of Internet end users."
>>
>> "19.5 No member of the electorate (Paragraph 19.10) may simultaneously
>> serve as a member of the BCEC."
>>
>> *According to 19.5, members of the electorate (i.e., members of the ALAC
>> and RALO Chairs who will be serving in 2017) may not be BCEC members.*
>>
>> The group must be regionally balanced, with two representatives from each
>> of the five RALOs. Each RALO will also select an Alternate member in the
>> event one of the original members must be replaced.
>>
>>
>> *Additionally, no member of the BCEC may submit an Expression of Interest
>> (EOI) for the position of the Board Director selected by At-Large. *
>> *Please note that experience on the 2010 or 2014 BCEC and/or on the ICANN
>> Nominating Committee would be highly desired.*
>>
>> English will be the working language of this group.
>>
>> The ALAC will select the Chair of the BCEC.
>>
>> The first meeting of the BCEC will be scheduled for late August or early
>> September.
