ICANN's Nominating Committee (NomCom) is responsible for the selection
of eight ICANN Board Members, two directors of the Public Technical
Identifiers (PTI) and for other selections as set forth in the
Bylaws (see Article 8, Section 8.1).
The NomCom is also charged with appointing some members of the ALAC,
ccNSO Council and the GNSO Council. The NomCom complements the other
means for filling a portion of key ICANN leadership positions
within the SOs and ACs.
As per the ICANN Bylaws (Article 8, Section 8.2), the Address Supporting
Organization Address Council (ASO AC) is pleased to invite nominations
for candidates from the 'Internet Numbers Community' to run for an open
seat on the 2020 ICANN NomCom as a delegate of the ASO. The term for the
selected delegate will be one year starting at ICANN 66 in Montreal,
Canada, November 2019 (see Article 8, Section 8.3 for the term limits).
