ICANN 43 COSTA RICA PUBLIC FORUM

DOCUMENT AVAILABILITY AND SCHEDULING OF ICANN MEETINGS

 

 

 

>>AYESHA HASSAN: FROM THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. AS MANY OF YOU
KNOW THE ICC IS A GLOBAL MEMBERSHIP ORGANIZATION. WE TRY TO TAP OUR NETWORK
AND BUILD CONSENSUS POSITION TOSS BRING THEM INTO THE ICANN SUBSTANTIVE
POLICY DISCUSSIONS. SO MY POINT GOES TO DOCUMENT AVAILABILITY. 

 

I WAS PLEASED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PUBLIC PARTICIPATION COMMITTEE MEETING
THIS MORNING WHERE SOME IDEAS WERE DISCUSSED IN THIS REGARD. ICC AS A
MEMBERSHIP ORGANIZATION HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO FOLLOW A CONSENSUS BUILDING
PROCESS WITHIN OUR NETWORK WHICH MEANS WE HAVE REAL DEADLINES FOR THE
DIGITAL ECONOMY COMMISSION THAT WE HAVE TO ABIDE BY. AND SO SOMETIMES WE ARE
UNABLE TO COMMENT ON ICANN ISSUES BECAUSE WE JUST DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO DO
OUR RULES AND REGULATIONS AND GET IT IN WITH THE DEADLINE THAT IS SET. SO
THIS MORNING, AND I'M SURE ICC IS NOT ALONE. I KNOW INTERNAL COMPANIES HAVE
PROCESSES AND PROGRAMS AND MANY ORGANIZATIONS ARE CHALLENGED IN THIS WAY.
THIS MORNING A POINT WAS MADE THAT PERHAPS CONSIDERATION OF EXTENDING THE
INITIAL COMMENT PERIOD AND REDUCING THE REPLY COMMENT PERIOD COULD BE
HELPFUL. I CAN SAY FROM MY ORGANIZATION'S PERSPECTIVE, THAT WOULD BE VERY
HELPFUL. WE NEED MORE TIME IN THE BEGINNING TO GET THE POSITIONS NAILED DOWN
AND LESS TIME TO BE ABLE TO REPLY BECAUSE WE'VE ALREADY BASICALLY HAVE OUR
POINTS SETTLED. THANK YOU.

 

>>STEVE CROCKER: LET ME ASK JUST A FOLLOW-UP. WHY DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD
REDUCE THE REPLY TIME? IT DOESN'T TAKE -- IT'S NOT SO QUICK TO DO THE
REPLIES EITHER.

 

>>AYESHA HASSAN: I THINK IF WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO MANAGE THE NUMBER OF
DAYS THAT I WOULD PREFER TO SEE MORE EMPHASIS ON THE INITIAL SET OF COMMENTS
THAT ARE DEVELOPED. FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, ONCE MY MEMBERS HAVE DECIDED ON
CERTAIN POINTS WE CAN MORE EASILY LOOK AT THE COMMENTS OF OTHERS AND SAY WE
HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY IN REPLY OR NOT.

 

>>STEVE CROCKER: SO, IT'S A -- I THINK A POTENTIALLY VERY INSIGHTFUL
COMMENT. LET ME JUST RESPOND BY SAYING I THINK WE SHOULD TAKE THAT ON BOARD
AND WE SHOULD PROBABLY LOOK AT EACH HALF OF THAT IN ITS OWN TERMS, HOW LONG
IS AN APPROPRIATE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR INPUT AND HOW LONG IS AN APPROPRIATE
AMOUNT OF TIME FOR OUTPUT AND I COULD IMAGINE A VARIETY OF THINGS AND
ADJUSTMENTS. BUT I THINK IT'S WORTH EXAMINING THE DYNAMICS AND SEE IF WE'RE
TUNED RIGHT OR.
