<div>Each of those networks is now urgently reaching out to
their constituents, as I'm doing so now, to ask for
expressions of interest in serving on the 1net steering
committee. On the part of the Best Bits participants, in Bali
we already nominated the same four Brazilian representatives
(Carolina, Joana, Carlos and Laura) to be on that committee.
As far as I know, they are willing to continue, but have
expressed the wish that someone else also join, who has a
closer association with the ICANN community. That being the
case, we need to put forward one name.</div>

Is this a view communicated by all the 4 reps... I am not so sure
of the justification. Why not for instance have someone from the
ICTD community... I think Carlos have deep connections enough with
the ICANN community, no... We need to take the Brazil summit
outwards towards key global Internet related public policy issues
that are real concerns for the world, and not more inwards towards
narrow ICANN issues, which are a very limited set. But I agree
that the four existing reps being all from Brazil, a developing
country, maybe the additional person can be from a developed
country. Crossing these two considerations, I think Michael
Gurstein should make a great choice.<br>

<br>
I must confess that I have been a victim of the huge amount of
parallel stuff going on, and I really thought I was nominating
Michael for CS reps for 'Brazil meeting' organising committee .... <br>
<br>
However, Jeremy, the confusion came from your note above saying that
4 current liaisons to Brazil Meeting will 'continue' and we need to
'add' only one more.... These 4 are not currently on the 1net
committee, and so terms like 'continue' do not make sense to me. By
the way is it a decided thing that the current 4 Brazilian CS
liaisons to the 'Brazil Meeting' would also be 4 persons in the 1net
steering committee, whereby the civil society coordination committee
will be choosing only one person t 'add'.. If so, who made that
decision, which is really a big one...<br>
<br>
Anyway, as I said, I meant to nominate Michael as a CS rep for the
'Brazil Meeting' .... Well, now since Carlos has stepped down, maybe
we can fill that one opening ...<br>
<br>
On the other hand, if Michael accepts nomination for the 1net
committee, I am happy to do that as well...<br>
<br>
Although, I must confess I am still not clear what this steering
committee is all about..<br>
<br>
Anyway, an earnet request to everyone, especially process
responsbility holders - pl clearly mark everytime we talk about
selections or any such thing seperately - whether it is about 1Net
or the "Brazil Meeitng' for which , as per our present decision we
are engaging directly with CGI.Br.<br>

<div>If you would like to be put yourself forward to join the
1net steering committee, or would like to nominate someone
else, then this thread is for that purpose. The thread can
also be used to discuss the criteria that you think should be
used by the joint committee in considering the nominees to put
forward. If you disagree that the four Brazilian
representatives should be amongst the five civil society
representatives on the 1net steering committee, then you can
put forward that view too.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In closing, I do need to acknowledge that the joint
committee is still an imperfect vehicle for nominating civil
society representatives to the 1net steering committee,
because it doesn't yet have an elaborate procedure in place
for making the selection - and I know how sensitive some of us
are about that sort of thing. All I can say about that is
that in parallel to this call for expressions of interest, the
committee is also considering how procedures it could put in
place that would satisfy their constituents' expectations for
a transparent and accountable process. Meanwhile, that
remains a work in progress.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I will forward the views put forward in this thread to the
other members of the joint committee (who are currently from
APC, Diplo, the IGC and the NCSG - Michael Gurstein's interest
in joining has also been noted and is under discussion). We
will then discuss the nominations within the committee, and
attempt to come back to you all with a suggestion that will
hopefully be generally acceptable. If you have any
process-related queries, it is probably appropriate that you
direct those to Ian Peter who is the independent chair of the
joint committee for now.</div>
