Cybersafety new constituency charter comments

[George Kirikos <gkirikos@xxxxxxxxx>]

According to Article X, Section 5.3 of the ICANN Bylaws:

http://www.icann.org/en/general/bylaws.htm

"No individual or entity shall be excluded from participation in a
Constituency merely because of participation in another Constituency."

There are several parts of the Cybersafety Constituency
petition/charter that do not seem aligned with that bylaw, e.g.
5.1.2.d)

"5.1.2 Ineligible Organizations.  An organization is not eligible to
be a CSC Member if it:
....
d. Is currently represented in ICANN through another Supporting
Organization or GNSO Stakeholder Group. Organizations that participate
in ICANN with the At Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) are not excluded
by this criterion."

and similarly 5.2.2.a:

"5.2.2 Ineligible Individuals.  An individual is not eligible to be a
Member of the CSC if  he/she:
a.  Is currently represented in ICANN through another Supporting
Organization or GNSO Stakeholder Group.  Individuals that participate
in ALAC are not  excluded by this criterion; "

I do like their Section 5.1.5, that organizations are classified as
"Large" or "Small" based on the number of employees (or members). I've
advocated that the Business Constituency should have a similar metric, rather 
than using revenues, to determine membership categories, which will hopefully 
happen when the BC new charter is drafted.

Sincerely,
