If there is no one else, there won't be election and we will just consider the nominated person.<br><br></div>Given that Analia (who will help technically to coordinate the polls) will be offline until September 4th, we have few more days to accept more nominations. I hope this will give you ample time to make your mind.<br><br></div>Note that other groups are already sending names to the CSCG, the IGC is still undecided.

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear colleagues,</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">[Apologize again for a long email but please read it
carefully]</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As <a href="http://lists.igcaucus.org/arc/governance/2016-08/msg00059.html" target="_blank"><u>promised</u></a>, we are opening up nominations for a new
Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) representative on the Civil Society
Coordination Group (CSCG). <br></p><p class="MsoNormal">For more info about the job of the CSCG, please do
refer to <a href="http://internetgov-cs.org/" target="_blank">their website</a>.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The new IGC Rep will serve for a period of 2 years starting
September 2016 (to September 2018) and I will be stepping down from this role next
year (in September 2017) after we have elected a new Co-coordinator in
replacement of Analia (whose term expires in January 2017).</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Description: </b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This position will not always require much of your time
though it can happen during Nomcoms or working groups. So we need someone who
knows a lot about IGF, MAG selection process and understands civil society in the
IG area as a whole. We need someone who has been active on the IGC for quite a
while and who can speak our positions.</p>
