[Chapter-delegates] ISOC Call for Nominations for PIR Board of Directors

[Kevin Craemer]

Dear Chapter Delegates,
The Internet Society is now accepting nominations for the Board of Directors of the Public Interest Registry (PIR). In 2015 there are three open positions. These positions have a 3-year term that begins mid-year 2015 and expires mid-year 2018. PIR's business is to manage an international registry of .ORG domain names, and is currently in the process of preparing to manage an additional registry of .NGO and .ONG domain names, solely intended for NGOs around the world, as well as four additional IDNs for .ORG. The deadline for PIR Board nominations is November 24, 2014.  
  
Additional details, including the nomination form, are available at:
