I hereby accept the nomination as a candidate for NCSG GNSO Council
Representative.
Here is my candidate statement:
Name: Johan Mikael ("Julf") Helsingius
Region of residence: Europe
Gender: Male
Employer: BaseN Netherlands (IoT services operator)
Conflict of interest:
The only possible conflict of
interest is that I am a board
member of SIY (the Finnish ISOC chapter).
Reasons for willingness to take on the tasks of the particular position:
I have always been an advocate of
freedom of speech and privacy
(see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penet_remailer),
and feel my positions mostly align
with those of the NCSG. I am also
keen to protect the governance of
the global Internet in a way that
furthers those goals.
Qualifications for the position:
Reasonable experience with ICANN
(two years on the council as NCA,
third year as liaison to the GAC)
as well as the larger Internet
Governance landscape (co-chair of
RIPE co-operation WG, board member
of Finnish ISOC chapter) and the
Internet industry (founder of
several ISPs and former telecoms
executive).
I am a former member of CCWG
Accountability, and current member
of the EPDP 2 (shoot me now!) and
CCWG Auction Proceeds. I am also
currently chair of the GNSO
Council Standing Selection
Committee.
Statement of availability for the time the position requires:
The summer and fall of this year
are turning out to be really busy
for me, but things are quieting
down by the time I would take the
council seat, so I do believe I do
have the time needed at that
point, but I will not volunteer
for a possible EPDP 3...
Julf
