Note from the BCEC
The BCEC were delighted with, and greatly appreciative of, the extraordinarily high standard of all the conforming applicant SOIs received.
- The Round 1 selection (consisting of sifting and sorting to identify a priority ) was done on 'blind' SOI information such as values associated with the key (desirable) criteria already established by the community for the role, was done without name and identifier information from the SOI's being associated with the data sets... ( NOTE the criteria you established and measurement criteria NOT the measured outcomes) will be published on the wiki page along with the SoI's and slate list.
- A numerical value of scoring that reached over 75% of the total score possible was used to mark/establish a cut-off point above which SOI's were selected to progress from round 1 to round 2 lists (which produced the shortlist of 3 candidates). Names were associated with the SOIs at this stage.
- Round 2 deliberations were conducted from a fresh or zero sum scoring on criteria and additional criteria and discussion points to establish the selection of the best possible applicants for inclusion on the slate occurred.
- All References from this same set of SoI's were written to and a standard feedback form was used to elicit responses and reference opinion, and a phone call alternate was offered to all listed referees... (note most reference responses were received within 36 hrs of the request for feedback being received many within the first few hours)
- Referee input was also taken into consideration in deliberations for the progression from shortlist to final slate.
- All SOI applicants remaining in the consideration pool after the Round 1 review were sent permission/ consent forms so that the process of Due Diligence could begin.
- Public Information Due Diligence has therefore been done by the consultant firm engaged by ICANN to undertake this task on all shortlisted SOI applicants who gave their consent, and deep dive checking will (has at time of publication of our slate) begun and should be completed well before electoral processes are undertaken.Comments:

It has been more than 48 hours since the close of the applications. Was there a problem in posting them - I see the note above that they will be published in October? Has the process, perhaps, been changed. If it has been changed, were all of those with incomplete applications notified? And what is the new process? Thanks.
