Hello again, This is just a message to remind you that under the ICANN bylaws, it is important that PSO-PC Secretary advises the ICANN Board and the ICANN Secretary Mr. Louis Touton no later than 16 September 2000 of the results of the PSO's selection of the ICANN director for the three-year term beginning 1 October 2000. As stated by Article V, Section 9(b) of ICANN's bylaws: (b) Prior to October 1 of each year beginning in the year 2000, each Supporting Organization entitled to select a Director (other than an Original Director selected by the Supporting Organization under Section 2 of this Article) shall (i) make its selection according to the procedures specified by Article VI (including Articles VI-A, VI-B, and VI-C), and (ii) give the Board and the Secretary of the Corporation at least fifteen days written notice of that selection. The term of such a Director shall commence on the October 1 after the Secretary's receipt of such written notice. For the new term to commence on October 1, 2000, the ICANN Secretary must therefore receive the notice by 16 September... Thank you to take this into consideration when possibly coming close to reaching a deadlock :-( I shall talk to you soon. Best regards, Livia =========================================================================
