I had not circulated the comments — I have them up now

hand up

Not seeing any comments

Only seeing Q2

Yes!

Thanks!

Actually no! Lets move it along!!

I have the same comment as Jothans just have 1 question to the group.

Actually, that is all of the comments on the screen

if we have no disqualification items, then we have the best candidate

Excellent thought! +1

+1

I don't see or know any items not allowing him to be the winner

Julf; do we know what will be the main GAC items in the upcoming year or so, beyond SubPro?

Marie: not really, beyond the usual stuff

Thanks.

,gnso council liaison to GaC

:) "HISTORICALa person appointed by the Roman Catholic Church to challenge a proposed beatification or canonization, or the verification of a miracle."

he is CPH and non CPH the same time

@maxim I think he is in ncph now

and managed to be purely neutral Co chair of SubPro

St Jeff of ICANN, Rafik? Might be a tad too far ;-).

Yes, Jeff has been on both sides of House. It seems to have figured out how to balance it. He is now an IPC member. He left Valedeus and is consulting on his own.

@Rafik, the same time he represents Registrats too

I think he found some balance

@marie and then we can celebrate the day of multistakeholderism and consensus :)

@Jothan, that's a good point on minority positions in the GAC! I have watched him treat minority positions with great care and consideration! +1

His role here will be to pass the Council's view on though - not any one SG/C.

I think we might need a draft of the text to Gnso council

hand up on next steps

Absolutely, if you would.

Thanks!

Good point Marie on graceful hand-off

@Marie, great advice to Julf!

we are here to make a selection, not to teach

hand up for next steps

I am sooooo not qualified to give Julf advice ;-)). But as well as the official handover, an off the record one-to-one is always useful.

Agree. Would expect that there is a de-brief before hand off.

we might congratulate Julf preliminary with some freedom

Can't we do it next week? Are we too late?

deadline was 14th

we passed the deadline

for motions and we did not have a placeholder

text

I have a question

The consensus call will be on this list, which is public

Jeff can see it if he wishes

hand up

hand up

and the motion will go to the Council list, which also is public

hand up

Consent agenda?

It is too late — voting items need to be by the deadline

OK - thanks.

I think it is safe to share informally with Jeff that he is the best of all candidates (only one was)

I just remembered, it will be in "consent agenda"

hand up

The deadline was only 3 days ago. Is there any room at all?

Rafik isn't reading my posts. Sad face.

( ;-) )

@marie, sorry I missed that -_-

Noted Julf — staff takes that as an action item.

GAC is insanely formal, as I understand, so I am not sure they recognize next Gnso liaison until the formal notification

Jeff cannot take over until after the AGM

Jeff can attend the GAC meetings if he wishes, they are open

ok

Staff will proceed to a consensus call until Monday, 21 Sept

Then produce a draft motion

I think email for confirmation s might be a good idea

That will be done Maxim — it is standard

that will be the consensus call

thanks

thanks all

Thanks and bye.

bye...

Bye all!

Thank you Julf. Thank you all. Another efficient meeting concluded.

thanks Julf, bye all.

bye

Thanks all - great candidate for a sole participant
