Thanks to all of those who participated in the discussions.

The nomination should include at least the following information:

the name and email address of the nominee, 
the name and email address of the nominator, and 
type of GA membership (i.e., GA-ga subscriber, GA-announce subscriber,

Any nominee has until 18:00 CET on December 3, 1999 in which to accept

The acceptance should include at least the following information:

the name and email address of the nominee, 
background information about the nominee, and

(including his or her views of the role of the GA and its relationship
with the Names Council and Constituencies of the DNSO). 
A list of the accepted nominees shall be published at the
http://www.dnso.org/dnso/notes/1999.DNSO-GA-nominees.html address no
later than 24:00 CET on December 3, 1999

submitted and are encouraged. Members of the GA may endorse as many
accepted nominees as they wish, but may only endorse any given accepted
nominee once. While the Names Council will consider the number of
endorsements for each accepted nominee as valuable input into the
selection process, given the potential for abuse in an online process,
such numbers will not be definitive.

Roberto Gaetano and Bradley Thorton. IN THE EVENT THAT ANY OF THE
MEMBERS OF THIS COMMITTEE ARE NOMINATED AND/OR ACCEPT A NOMINATION, THEY
SHALL IMMEDIATELY RESIGN FROM THE COMMITTEE.  MEMBERS THAT ARE NOMINATED
BUT DECLINE TO ACCEPT THE NOMINATION MAY RETURN TO THE COMMITTEE UPON
EXPRESSLY DECLINING THEIR NOMINATION.  Any instances of fraudulent
nominations or endorsements should be reported to this committee at the

Council at council@dnso.org. This committee and the Names Council shall
have the sole discretion as to how to deal with any such reported
