[gnso-dow123] Matrix of current WHOIS work items
Dear all, I attach a Word document with a matrix of the current work items relating to Whois. This aims give a bird's eye view of all the current issues and where they are in the process. ICANN staff are working to improve our reporting on policy issues - this matrix represents a step in that direction. We are looking at better reporting and also process tracking tools for the work of the GNSO as a whole. The matrix is a static snapshot of WHOIS work today, but we're also looking at ways to capture, track and perhaps even visually represent individual policy items as they move through the policy process. If you have the time to consider this, I'd really appreciate your input on how helpful or otherwise this matrix is. As we move forward, I will continue to update this matrix (or an evolved version of it, based on your input). We also plan to extend a similar type of reporting to the overall GNSO Council work items. I've tried to make the WHOIS matrix comprehensive and up to date, but please do let me know if you think of something I've missed. Many thanks, Maria Attachment:
