To guide this process ICANN is electing 5 At-Large Members from the Internet Community.

Later this year, five Directors of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) will be selected by ICANN's At Large Members in a worldwide online election. As the first step of the election process, ICANN has chartered a Nominating Committee to nominate a set of candidates for the consideration of the At Large Members.

The ICANN Nominating Committee actively seeks recommendations and/or expressions of interest from members of the Internet community. To identify outstanding candidates, the Committee depends upon input from Internet users worldwide. Communications sent to the Nominating Committee will be kept confidential. To be most useful, recommendations and expressions of interest should contain the information in the Guidelines set forth below, and should be sent to <nominations@icann.org>.

Recommendations and expressions of interest should be sent no later than July 10, 2000. The Nominating Committee intends to complete its work by the end of July, after which the election process will proceed to:

Nomination by the Nominating Committee will thus be one of two avenues for candidates to appear on the final ballot.
