[CS Bureau] Re: [governance] New French Govt ICANN GAC/ Governance Rep.

[Robert Guerra]

Further to my earlier message (below).... Bertrand's confirmed
appointment as French Government representative for WSIS follow-up and
ICANN creates thus, an opening now on the Civil society bureau (CSB) for
the Internet Governance caucus (IGC).

Looking at the recently adopted IG charter - i have a question. Will the
caucus coordinators will server as representatives to the CSB , will a
person need to be elected from within the caucus or will the IGC wish to
decline serving on the CSB?

Though i'd raise the issue - hope the IG caucus meeting over the next
week or so can come up with a statement on what to do..


Regards

Robert
