Re: [ga] We "decided" to defer the election of our ICANN boardseats

May I suggest that if this process is to be meaningful, the nominator
please present some background information and reason for placing a name in
nomination.  During the IFWP process, a number of inappropriate names
(Garth Brooks comes to mind) were placed into the public hopper, and while
I doubt that this will occur here, it would be helpful for all participants
to know what expertise, experience, and history triggers a nomination.

Then, of course, those who accept should provide the following information
as outlined by the Names Council:

The acceptance of the Nomination must include:

           * Their full name
           * E-mail address
           * Organization they work for (if apply)
           * Snail-mail address.
           * The region that includes the country of which they are
             a citizen
           * The region that includes the country in which they
             reside
           * A clear statement of acceptance of the nomination
           * A Curriculum Vitae (no more than 500 words long)
           * A statement indicating their ideas, intentions and/or
             the reason why they consider they should be elected to
             serve in the ICANN Board (no more than 500 words).
