[bestbits] Call for expressions of interest: 1net steering committee

[William Drake]

Hi

Rafik is the elected chair of NCSG, which comprises a) NCUC, with 313 members from 78 countries, including 88 noncommercial organizations and 225 individuals; b) NPOC, with 52 nonprofit organizations in a couple dozen countries; and c) some free floating individual members that are in neither constituency.  NCSG dwarfs in size most other networks in this space, operates in a transparent and accountable manner, and has ongoing working relations with other stakeholder groups and ICANN, so one would think he’d be an obvious choice.

Best,

Bill

I am just not sure they are part of BB. They are part of other CS coalitions...
