Further Information
-----------------

ICANN’s Nominating Committee (NomCom) is responsible for the selection of
eight ICANN Board Members, two directors of the Public Technical
Identifiers (PTI) and for other selections as are set forth in the Bylaws
(see Article 8, Section 8.1).

The NomCom is also charged with appointing some members of the ALAC, ccNSO
Council and the GNSO Council. The NomCom complements the other means for
filling a portion of key ICANN leadership positions achieved within the SOs
and ACs.

As per the ICANN Bylaws (Article 8, Section 8.2), the ASO AC is pleased to
invite nominations for candidates from the “Internet Numbers Community” to
run for an open seat on the ICANN NomCom 2020 as delegate of the ASO.

The term for the selected delegate will be one year starting in ICANN 66 in
Montreal, Canada, in November 2019 (see Article 8, Section 8.3 for term
limits).

All ICANN Bylaws described above can be found at:
https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article8


Time Commitment for the ASO NomCom Representative
------------------------------------------------
The person should be able to join monthly teleconferences (typically 15:00
or 16:00 UTC). Note that the committee’s workload will increase
significantly during Apr/May/June 2020 when the candidate assessment
process will be at its busiest. Conference calls are held more frequently
(typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to 3 hours)
during this time.

The person should be able to join (in person), three ICANN (66, 67 and 68)
meetings and an intersessional meeting (location decided by NomCom 2020).
Travel support for all meetings is provided by ICANN.

The person must be able to attend the NomCom selection meeting in late June
2020 during ICANN 68.

The ICANN NomCom has a set of guidelines and procedural documents for
reference that provide additional information about the work of the NomCom.
