Dear NCSG members, Another attempt on Monday to reach all members who'd not checked in yet resulted in several more people responding, thank you all, but there are still quite a few inactive members and there may be some errors in our list. So, if you haven't already done so, please check your status here: https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Check-in+2016 Note that there are separate tabs for individuals and organizations and that the entries are order alphabetically by first name shown - which in most cases is indeed first name but in some name order is reversed, so check both if you can't find yourself listed at all. If you find any errors, if you're not listed as active or your name or your organization's representative is wrong, please let me know *TODAY*, before we finalize the voter list. Otherwise, nomination period is over, there is conference call tomorrow, Thursday 18 August at 1300 UTC, where the candidates will be answering any questions you may have. Voting will begin next week, I will send another message explaining the procedure later. Please refer to the general election page for more information: https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Elections-2016 You can of course also ask me any questions you may have. Best regards, -- Tapani Tarvainen
