*Dear all,*
*Please find below a message from the Chair of the ITCG NOMCOM, **Eliot
Lear,** in regards to the recently concluded nominations process to the IGF
MAG:*

The Internet Technical Collaboration Group nominations committee (NOMCOM)
is pleased to have put forward the following slate of new candidates for
consideration by the United Nations to the 2016 Multistakeholder
Advisory Group (MAG).  Names are listed in alphabetical order:

•    Miss Laura Hutchison of the United Kingdom

•    Ms. Karen McCabe of the United States of America
•    Mr. Shernon Osepa of Curaçao (Netherlands)
•    Mr. Sumon Ahmed Sabir of Bangladesh
•    Ms. Salam Yamout* of Lebanon

In addition to these new candidates, we have endorsed the continuing
participation in the MAG of the following individuals:

•    Mr. Peter Dengate Thrush of New Zealand
•    Mr. Xiaodong Lee* of the People’s Republic of China
•    Ms. Izumi Okutani of Japan

•    Mr. German Valdez of Australia
•    Mr. Flavio Wagner of Brazil

A justification for each individual has been filed online with the UN.
 *Dr. Lee and *Ms. Yamout work for their respective governments.

The NOMCOM was constituted and convened shortly after the UN issued the
call for MAG candidates on 4 January, and worked through the month of
January.  A call for applications was issued on 8 January, 2016.
Applications from thirty-two people were received, and then considered.  In
addition, the NOMCOM solicited for, and received applications from members
of the MAG who represent the Internet Technical Community and wished to be
renewed.  In making our selection, the NOMCOM took into account the
individuals’ abilities and accomplishments, as well as both gender and
regional diversity.  The NOMCOM considered the need for continuity within
the MAG when examining those candidates wishing to continue as MAG members,
and particularly the criteria that can be found at internetcollaboration.org
.

The NOMCOM would like to thank all applicants for their applications and
willingness to devote time to this important process.

The members of the Internet Technical Collaboration Group NOMCOM for
2016 were:

•    Carolina Aguerre
•    Adiel Akplogan
•    Jane Coffin
•    Nigel Hickson
•    John Klensin
•    Eliot Lear (chair)
•    Scott Mansfield
•    Ashwin Jacob Mathew

   - Carl Gahnberg (ISOC support)


On behalf of the ITCG NOMCOM,

Eliot Lear
Chair
