Dear all,

The Policy Call attendance records of this year should now be up to
date and easily viewable here:

https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/PC+Mtg+Attendance+2016

Sorry for the delay in getting this done, but there's still time to
take this into account in deciding how you vote.

I note in at least one candidate statement that the candidate mentioned their stellar attendance record on WG calls. It would be helpful to be able to check, at a quick glance, whether this extends to their involvement in pre-Council or NCSG policy meetings, or whether we have 'rogue agents' (for lack of a better term) heavily involved in WGs but not necessarily seeking the community's input along the way. This is not intended to diminish the dedicated participation of any candidate — I commend anyone who finds the time to actively participate in a WG's activities — but given concern of late that we don't have a coordinated front, we might want to consider who is or is not participating in NCSG calls before we go through the charade of re-electing anyone...
