Dear All,
I am sorry to see Sam withdraw and, I too, ,was operating under the impression that the process would be a true selection process based on the evaluation of candidates against our stated criteria. There is no doubt about Milton’s qualifications but I would have liked to see a different process too so that others who may be qualified would be considered. As to Avri’s point, I agree that this is about NCSG and not constituencies but it also should be about fairness and I didn’t even see the email that said we were running a ballot today.

Subject: Re: Selection of NCSG representative/connector on IANA Transition coordination group.
Colleagues,
When asked if I would let my name stand as a candidate here I said yes
based on the assumption that there would be other candidates,
followed by an open dialogue about what was desired as an outcome.
I am dismayed by the turn of events and wish to stem the slide toward acrimony.
In the interests of civility I withdraw my name as a candidate.
Let the dialogue return to better ground.
Sam Lanfranco
