> the CEO of ICANN
> representatives of the Root Server System Advisory Committee
> representatives of the Security and Stability Advisory Committee
> representatives of the At-Large Advisory Committee
> representatives of the Generic Names Supporting Organization
> representatives of the Address Supporting Organization
> representatives of the Country Code Names Supporting Organization
> independent experts (likely drawn from either the Technical Liason   
> Group, the IETF, the IAB, or from the pool of volunteer community
