Dear colleagues

Bill Drake, our current member on the CCWG-Internet Governance (CCWG-IG) has, unfortunately, decided to step down.  We want to thank Bill for his tireless engagement in the WG and hope that he will remain involved in its work and continue to guide our community's engagement in Internet governance work.

We urgently need to find a replacement for Bill. We have had some expressions of interest but we welcome additional expressions of interest from the community.

Please note that the NCSG PC will be evaluating the candidates according to the following:

• Overall engagement in NCSG policy-related work and with the community more broadly
  
• Internet Governance experience (inside AND outside ICANN)
• Experience with CCWGs.

Those who are interested should also state why they would like to represent NCSG's interests in the CCWG IG (2 paragraphs max).  A commitment to materially and consistently contribute to the WG and to communicating on a regular basis with NCSG as to the work of the WG is essential.

Timeline:

Please send expressions of interest to the NCSG list by 23.59 UTC August 4.  A decision will be communicated to the community at the latest by 23.29 UTC Aug 8.

Thank you.
