The ICANN 2010 Nominating Committee (NomCom) has recently announced this year's selectees to ICANN's leadership .
"We are proud to announce this year’s selectees to ICANN’s leadership. They include highly accomplished and experienced individuals from Albania, Argentina, Egypt, France, Germany, and the United States. The Committee noted with deep satisfaction that so many highly qualified individuals had put their names forward for these positions. At the same time, this made the Committee´s work particularly complex, with difficult choices between numerous excellent candidates to fill just a handful of positions. The final selections, a consensus after long deliberations in the Committee, combines renewal with expertise and experience in a way that we trust will reinforce ICANN and meet the community's expectations. Furthermore, for the first time in ICANN’s history, since 1998, the Committee has selected a representative of the Arab speaking community to the Board, which underlines the importance of further internationalization of ICANN.",said Wolfgang Kleinwaechter,the NomCom's Chair .
