[WSIS CS-Plenary] IGF Nomination Deadline: Monday April 12th

[Avri Doria]

Dear all,

** Please distribute this message to your caucuses and working groups  
and others who may be interested - the deadline for nominations is  
April 12th (it was originally  April 10th, but given the slow start  
we have decided to extend it to 12 April).**

Further to my message of April 5th, this message is a reminder to all  
those interested to submit nominations for the Civil Society Internet  
Governance Caucus' (IGC's) IGF Multi-Stakeholder Advisory Group (IGF- 
MAG) candidate list as soon as possible.

At a minimum, all nominations and self nominations should consist of  
the following:

- Name
- Name of nominator (or self)
- Nationality
- Country of Residence
- Gender
- Short Bio relevant to IG
- Why the (self)nominee is a good choice for the MAG
- Willingness to serve on MAG [if not self-nomination]
   If the nomination is not a self-nomination, then the nominator  
should check with the nominated to ensure that she or he is  willing  
to serve.

It would also be useful to indicate that the (self) nominee has the  
ability to handle the additional workload.  While the work load is  
uncertain, it will probably involve 1-2 several day meetings in  
Geneva (one has already scheduled in May) and a fair amount of email  
traffic. If the WGIG workload is any indication, there may be times -  
especially as the Athens meeting approaches, where this could consume  
at least a day a week.

We request that either the nominator or the nominee, collect all of  
the above information into a single email which should be sent to :    
IGC-nomcom at wsis-cs.org before 12 April.

Note: Please indicate the nominee's willingness to have the  
nomination published on a web site being created for this purpose.   
The creation of the web site is under discussion in the IGC, and it  
is important that nominees indicate whether they agree to having  
their information made public as was done in the WGIG process.

The candidate list will be forwarded to the IGF secretariat on, or  
before, 18 April.

Thanks
a.
