Dear Thomas and everyone,I have already submitted some nominations to the NomCom for the appeals team.I think most, probably all of us believe in checks and balances, and the appeals team seems to me to be just that for the IGC.

I didn't volunteer because I felt like something of a newcomer, but I realise that I was at the face-to-face meeting in Hyderabad in 2008, so really I've been around for quite a long time.And besides this sounds like a desperate case :-)

And there is a good chance that the appeals team will never have to do anything anyway.So I volunteer, and I hope that between today and tomorrow lots of other people will too.Best wishes and good luck to the NomCom

    IGC Members,

    

    We have several nominees/volunteers for the Appeals Team, but we've
    not confirmed that all the nominees are willing to serve. So the
    NomCom would like to make a final request that some more of you to
    step forward. See below for details on the duties of the Appeals
    Team. 

    

    Sunday night is the deadline.

     Sincerely,
     Thomas Lowenhaupt (non-voting chair), 

        on behalf of the NomCom members:

      OK, the Subject: is a too obvious joke considering the
      quality of performance by our hard working and esteemed co-chairs.
      But on behalf of the Appeals Team nominating Committee, I'm
      compelled to note: we're past the half-way mark for submitting
      nominations for the IGC's Appeals Team, and not one name has
        been submitted!

      

      The important and engaging discussions on topics relating to the
      Internet's future provide a better excuses for the paucity of
      nominees than the traditional "the dog ate my paper." But the
      deadline for nominations is approaching - next Sunday, June 24,
      see details below - and we have a responsibility to have an
      Appeals Team.

      

      See the duties and qualification details below, and send
      nominations to the Appeals Team members:

      
        Asif Kabani <kabani.asif at gmail.com>
        Hakikur Rahman <email at hakik.org>
        Naveed haq <naveedpta at hotmail.com>

      Best,

      
      Tom Lowenhaupt

        

      
      

      As sent on May 24...

      
      Fellow Members of the
          IGF,
      With “Governance” a key word in our Civil
          Society Internet Governance Caucus, the selection of an
          Appeals Team is an important part of our responsibilities.
          This email begins the process of creating a new Appeals Team.
          As per the IGC
            Charter, the role of the Appeals Team is:
      “Any time 4 individual members of the IGC
          co-sign a statement on the main IGC mailing list they can
          appeal any decision of the coordinators. When a decision is
          appealed, the appeals team will review any discussions that
          occurred and will request comments from the IGC membership.
          Based on the information they collect and discussion, they
          will decide on the merit of the appeal."

          

          "Decisions by the appeals team are based on a majority vote of
          the appeal team, i.e., three (3) or more votes, except in the
          case of coordinator recall which requires full consensus. The
          decision of the appeals team will be final on every decision
          reviewed.”

          

        “An appeals
          team of five (5) IGC members will be formed. The appeals board
          will be selected yearly by a randomly selected nominating
          committee as defined here.
          Coordinators are not qualified to be members of the appeals
          team.”
       Thus the members of the Appeals Team serve
          a vital role in maintaining the integrity of the IGC's
          efforts.
       This letter calls for nominees – self or
          otherwise – for a new Appeals Team. Nominations shall be
          received by midnight, June 24, 2012 GMT. 

          

          Nominees will be contacted to verify their interest in the
          position and to submit background information that will help
          the NomCom make a decision as to its membership. The NomCom
          will review the nominees and render its decision by July 15,
          2012.
       To assure full and timely distribution of
          nominations, they should be sent to the NomCom Chair via TomL at communisphere.com,
          and to each NomCom voting member using the Cc. addresses in
          the heading area of this email. [NOTE: The Nominating
          Committee member email addresses provided below.]

        
       We look forward to your participation in
          this important activity.
       On behalf of the Appeals Team Nominating
          Committee: Asif Kabani, Hakikur Rahman, Naveed-ul-Haq, Shahid
          Uddin Akbar, and Wilson Abigaba.
       Sincerely,
       Thomas Lowenhaupt (non-voting chair)

          

        
        
          Asif Kabani <kabani.asif at gmail.com>
          Hakikur Rahman <email at hakik.org>
          Naveed haq <naveedpta at hotmail.com>
