At-Large Delegates Needed for ICANN 2006 Nominating Committee

The At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) is seeking
recommendations/volunteers for delegates to ICANN's 2006 Nominating
Committee (NomCom), which selects individuals to serve on ICANN's Board
and in other leadership positions. At-Large delegates will fill seats
on the NomCom. NomCom information is posted at
http://www.icann.org/committees/nom-comm/. For more information on
At-Large delegate positions, or to receive a "statement of interest
form" for potential At-Large delegates, send an email to
committee@alac.icann.org. Statements of interest are requested by 18
November 2005.

Each year, the NomCom is responsible for selecting individuals to serve
in key leadership positions within the ICANN structure. This year, for
example, the NomCom is appointing members of ICANN's Board of Directors,
the GNSO Council, the ccNSO Council, and the ALAC.

With significantly more seats on the NomCom than any other constituency,
At-Large will have five NomCom delegates, one from each geographic
region (Africa, Asia/Australia/Pacific, Europe, Latin America/Caribbean
Islands, and North America). The ALAC has asked the At-Large Structures
in each region (and groups that have applied to be ALSs) to recommend an
individual to serve on the NomCom from their region. After receiving
recommendations and input, the ALAC will appoint At-Large delegates.

Questions regarding this announcement should be emailed to
committee@alac.icann.org.
