[bc-gnso] FOR REVIEW: BC comment on ICANN's focus for 5-year strategic plan

[Steve DelBianco <sdelbianco@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Attached is the current draft BC comment on ICANN’s Vision, Mission & Focus for 
5-year Strategic Plan, which came out of last summer’s "brainstorming" by 
board, community and staff. 
(link<http://www.icann.org/en/about/planning/strategic-engagement/focus-areas-29oct13-en.pdf>)

Tim Chen and Chris Chaplow led drafting of the BC comment, with help from 
Martin Sutton, Marilyn Cade, and Andrew Mack.

Comments close 31-Jan, so today begins our 14-day review period.

We need draft comments for Focus Area V: Defining role clarity for ICANN in the 
Internet governance ecosystem.
Yesterday I shared my views about ICANN limiting its mission and avoiding 
entanglements in the broader I-Gov debate.       If no BC members contribute 
text for Area V, then I can draft something next week.

Please REPLY ALL with edits (TRACK CHANGES)as soon as possible, since the 
comment deadline is 31-Jan-2014.

Thanks again to Tim and Chris for taking the lead on this.
