Text
Veni Markowski introduced a resolution, seconded by Hagen Hultzsch
Whereas, on 31 May 2006, ICANN announced the resignation of the Chair of the ICANN 2006 Nominating Committee, Eugenio Triana, which was prompted by outside work obligations.
Whereas, Mr. Triana was thanked for his service by ICANN President Paul Twomey, and ICANN Board Chairman Vinton Cerf, and the full Board wishes to convey its gratitude to Mr. Triana for his service.
Whereas, Chairman Cerf called upon George Sadowsky, the Chair of the 2005 Nominating Committee and an advisor to the 2006 Nominating Committee to step into the role of Interim Chair of the 2006 Nominating Committee.
Whereas, George Sadowsky is eminently well-qualified to continue his leadership of the Nominating Committee, and has indicated his willingness to serve as Chair until the conclusion of the ICANN annual meeting in 2006, or until his earlier resignation, removal, or other disqualification from service.
Following discussion, a vote was taken on the resolution, which the Board unanimously adopted by a 11-0 vote.
Resolved (06.54), that George Sadowsky is appointed as Chair of the 2006 Nominating Committee.
