Hi Alain,

Answering the questions was voluntary, just posed by me in my Interim role to try and make sure that people knew the positions of the people they were considering for g-council and chair.  Answering them or not was completely up to the candidates themselves.  I was hoping that a far ranging and detailed, but polite, debate would ensue among the members on these and other issues.

Especially, if you have already thought out answers, however, I recommend you send them to the list.  As a member of the NCSG community, I for one would like to read them.  I know that for myself personally, I decided I would not vote for anyone who did not answer the questions.  Also as I reminded people, one can re-vote as often as they like  before the ballot closes on 17 October at 2359 UTC-11 - with only the last vote counting.  Just go to the web site    <http://tally.icann.org/cgi/tally?v=797e074f4e7> and use the BALLOT NUMBER and PASSWORD incuded in the ballots.    

Also since I am writing again, I was asked by a member to remind people

It is 2 emails because the ballots for g-council and chair are different ballots.

Cheers,

avri

PS: I am told that 67/144 voters had sent in ballot as of yesterday.  I guess that for NCSG 47% of active participants voting is pretty good especially since there has been no nagging yet.  Since there is not threshold on elections, it does not really matter how many people vote, but it will be unfortunate if fewer than 50% of the 'active' members actually vote.
