I am pretty sure that Thomas already reached out to them. I agree that it is
better late than never but I don't think we should delay finalizing our report
because of late responses. At this point, I think the best thing we can do is
agree on the Final Report and send it to the Council. Any discrepancies in
terms of support levels can be ironed out in the public comment period and via
GNSO processes at the Council level.

Who are our WG reps from those groups? Maybe we can reach out to them and get
an official position? Better late than never?
Thanks,
Kiran

Thanks Alan. I understand your rationale but I think it would make more sense
if we had a better response to the consensus call. As it stands, there were no
responses from three voting groups on the Council: the RrSG, the BC & the
ISPCP. That's big gap in my opinion and very unfortunate and I question
whether we should reach conclusions about WG level of support without taking
into consideration what participants from those three groups communicated in
our WG efforts.

Largely on the responses. My inclination (and should have said) is that if we
are going to factor in other views not represented in the formal replies, that
they need to be sumarized so there is something less nebulous that dozens of
hours of MP3 and transcripts to refer to.

Alan,
Did you base your assessments strictly on the response to the consensus call or
did you also take into consideration the work of WG over the last few months
as Thomas tried to do.

I generally agree with the assessments with the following exceptions:
IOC-1: Looks like Strong support but significant opposition (SSbSO)to me.
IOC-2: SSbSO
Note that 1 and 2 receved virtually identical answers to 3 and 4 which were
rated SSbSO.
IGO-2: SSbSO
IGO-4: Looks more like Consensus to me.
General-2: Looks like a Minority View (MV)
General-4: mv
General-7: Given that it is highly unlikely that we will make claims permanent
for TMs, this is a MV.

Subject: [gnso-igo-ingo] Consensus Level
All,
as discussed during the last WG call, please find attached the assessment of
the consensus level I made as chair of this WG.
Please do take the time and verify whether you agree with the determination I
made. That means that I would like to ask you whether you share my view of the
consensus level inside the group for the individual recommendations. The task
is not to say whether you like the outcome of the consensus call or not, but to
let the group know if you disagree with the level of consensus I have spelled
out in the attached document. Thus, it may well be that you take a different
position and do not like that a certain position has reached consensus or
another recommendation is tagged "divergence", but you can still confirm
whether you agree with my assessment or not. For the sake of making things
easier, you do not have to send your agreement to the list, but it is important
that you speak out if you think I made a mistake. What I would least like to
see is that we get an issue or even formal steps taken against the
determination of the consensus level. I am more than happy to discuss each and
every individual point, both on the list as well as with you individually,
should you wish so.
How did I get to the results you find in the document?
To avoid duplication, I would like to refer you to the transcript of the this
week's call where we went through the respective rules of the WG Guidelines. In
brief:
Determining the consensus level is an iterative process. Hence, I have not only
taken the outcome of the consensus call, the deadline of which ended earlier
this week.
I have looked at records of our deliberations and inputs that were provided by
various groups. In particular, I have taken a look at the positions that were
taken by those that did not respond to the consensus call as their opinion
should not get lost in the process.
As a consequence, the attached document shows some changes compared to earlier
versions of the paper.
Please allow me to make a personal remark: As a group, we have developed all
the remarkable recommendations you find in the document and now I find myself
as an individual determining the consensus level. That is quite odd. So please
help me to get this right to do the work of the group justice.
Thanks and have a great weekend,
Thomas
