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

[Marilyn Cade <marilynscade@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I will draft something for ICANN mission/lingage to I-GOV. I wanted to hear 
from CCWG and 1NET first, and that happened this week.
I also moved this to bc-private just temporarily.  
David, Aparna, Philip, and I were on CCWG and David, Aparna, and others from 
business COMMUNITY, were on relevant calls last week. I will send a short 
assessment over week end. 
If members want public access to our discussions, we can move back to public 
list, but I didn't want to do that, without full consideration from BC members.

Subject: [bc-gnso] FOR REVIEW: BC comment on ICANN's focus for 5-year strategic 
plan
Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2014 17:27:45 +0000







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)



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.
