6.   Draft Candidate Requirements

- I was unable to find any statement of candidate requirements for 2014, only a discussion paper

- The current draft is repeat of the 2010 Candidate Requirements with the following changes:

                1.    Deleted “ 5. Persons who are willing to serve as volunteers, without compensation other than the reimbursement of certain expenses;” as this has been removed from the Bylaws

                2.    Replaced the whole section “Additional Bylaw Qualifications” with a direct cut and paste from the latest 11Feb2016 version of the Bylaws (wording has changed quite a bit but general intent hasn’t)

                3.    Additional first criteria under “ALAC-specific Guidelines” ( - An understanding of ICANN At-Large) which was introduced in 2014.
