I nominate Mary Wong and second Bill Drake's self-nomination.  Mary has
also confirmed that she's willing to serve.

Both Mary and Bill have served the NCSG well in their first terms, and
now bring the benefit of experience in Council practice and procedure,
as well as understanding of ICANN issues.  Their differing sources of
outside experience -- Bill's in governance, Mary's in intellectual
property law -- bring helpful background to discussions among NCSG
Councilors, in GNSO working groups, and with the GNSO Council as a whole.
