Hi
One aspect to consider in the review of the new procedures is to align the timelines with some changes made in the iCANN bylaws.
In theory our appointments should be made 6 months before the start of the term
This is stated in section 7.8.d of the ICANN Bylaws. This was updated once ICANN adopted the concept of the Empowered Community. Likewise our timeline should include the notification of the election results to the Empowered Community Administration Representative, that’s add around one week before we can actually make an official announcement of the election results which it must be vetted by this group.
I know, it’s one of many aspect to bear in mind.
I’m attaching the text of the section 7.8.d below.
Looking forward to keeping the discussion going and have a draft document in the coming months.
Regards
German
