>CALL FOR NOMINATIONS FOR ICANN BOARD OF DIRECTORS
>-------------------------------------------------
>
>This is an open call for nominations of interested individuals to serve on the
>Board of Directors of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and
>Numbers (ICANN), as a nominee of the ICANN Address Supporting Organization
>(ASO).
>
>ICANN is the non-profit corporation that was formed to take over
>responsibility for the IP address space allocation, protocol parameter
>assignment, domain name system management, and root server system
>management functions
>previously performed under U.S. Government contract by IANA and other
>entities. The Board will be composed of nineteen Directors, including nine
>At-Large Directors, nine to be nominated by Supporting Organizations, and
>the President/CEO (ex officio). Further details on the composition and
>responsibilities of ICANN can be found at http://www.icann.org. Prospective
>nominees are strongly urged to read the ICANN Corporate Documents and
>other ICANN published material, as well as the adopted ASO proposal,
>located at http://www.arin.net/asoproposal.htm.
>
>The ASO will have the responsibility for nominating three ICANN Directors.
>This responsibility will, in the normal course of events, be conducted through
>an open process managed by the Address Council, a body created by the
>ASO to manage its business.
>
>For the initial ASO nominations to the ICANN Board, the ASO Address Council
>will nominate three Directors to serve terms of 1, 2, and 3 years. This
>process has been initiated by the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs)
>through this
>open call for nominations. The process of selecting the initial ICANN

>Art. V., Sec 5.). Self-nominations are permitted.
>
>However, no member of staff of an RIR is eligible to be appointed to the ICANN
>Board, and no ASO-appointed Director may serve simultaneously on the
>Address Council. The Directors appointed by the ASO will not represent the
