...

In addition, the NomCom needs a non-voting chairperson. The charter says about this: “A non voting chair will be appointed by the coordinators for each nomcom with the advice of the IGC membership. In order to serve as a chair, it is recommended that a person has served in at least one nomcom previously.”

Consequently, we hereby invite the Internet Governance Caucus membership to give advice on who would be a good chairperson for the NomCom. Please give your advice by Wednesday January 30.


The remainder of this message announces the details of the random selection process that will be used, so that it will be possible to verify afterwards that this process was not manipulated.

The selection will be carried out by means of the reference program code "Publicly Verifiable Random Selection" from RFC 3797 [4], as downloaded from [5]. The file pvrs-0.3.tgz has SHA-1 hash [6] bf68909204174dbb3a9b76b3fc6392b6576fb5f1. The random seed will consist of the seven numbers of the Wednesday January 30 Lotto draw of the UK National Lottery [7] (the six "ball numbers" followed by the number of the "bonus ball").
