Dear All:

In follow-up from yesterday's GNSO Council meeting, NCSG is able to nominate both a primary and secondary candidate to serve on the ICANN Accountability and Transparency Review Team 2.  NCSG' primary endorsement should be *guaranteed* a seat on the ATRT2 team, while NCSG's secondary endorsement *may* be selected by the GNSO Council to meet its geographic and gender diversity requirements.  

Two NCSG members have requested NCSG endorsement for their candidacy to participate on the ATRT2 team.  NCSG's two candidates are Avri Doria and Marie-Laure Lemineur, both of whom would serve NCSG/ICANN well on the ATRT.  One will be endorsed as primary and the other as secondary participants on the ATRT. Their candidate statements are below.  NCSG-EC will make the final decision on its list, which is cc'd here along with both NCSG candidates.

We have a tight deadline (less than 48-hrs) to make our selections for primary/secondary endorsement, and I'd like to open this up to the membership to ask questions of the candidates and also for the NCSG members to state what the issues are that they would like for NCSG's representatives to take back to ATRT.  

Therefore now have a 24-hour period to ask the two NCSG candidates questions and to provide them with initial feedback about desired outcomes for the ATRT (using this list beginning now).

The ATRT process is extremely important for continuing to improve ICANN's record on accountability and transparency issues, so I encourage you all to take a look and provide some feedback to the candidates at your earliest opportunity.

Thank you,

Robin
