It appears to me that Mikey's current issue arising in connection with PDP may 
then in fact be "in scope".

Anne and Ron,

As I mentioned in the chat room today, under the GNSO Improvements Process, the 
PDP-WT (see https://community.icann.org/display/gnsoppsc/PDP-WT+Home), as part 
of the Policy Process Steering Committee (PPSC), was tasked with "reviewing the 
existing PDP in the Bylaws and recommending changes to the community and 
Council based on an open community WG approach to the deliberative process."  
The WT produced a Final Report in September 2011 -- 
https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/9405500/PDP-WT+Updated+Final+Report+-+FINAL+-+28+September+2011.pdf?version=2&modificationDate=1317201588000
 — that included the PDP Manual.  The PDP Manual was adopted and is 
incorporated into the GNSO Operating Procedures as Annex 2 of the Procedures.  
Under its original charter, the SCI "will be responsible for reviewing and 
assessing the effective functioning of recommendations provided by the 
Operational Steering Committee (OSC), Policy Process Steering Committee (PPSC) 
and Policy Development Process Work Team (PDP-WT) and approved by the GNSO 
Council."  As the PPSC and PDP-WT created the PDP Manual, it would appear to be 
in scope for the SCI to consider requests for changes to the PDP Manual along 
the lines stipulated in the Charter, as follows:

  *   On request for those recommendations that have been identified to present 
immediate problems
  *   On a periodic timescale for all recommendations in order to identify 
possible issues and/or improvements (subject to a clear definition by the SCI 
on which recommendations should be reviewed)

I hope this is helpful.

Best regards,

Julie

I have to admit, Anne, that this is something that I, too, am unfamiliar with.  
Perhaps Julie can assist us with some institutional memory?

Could someone please clarify for me what we are supposed to do in evaluating 
the effectiveness of the changes in By-Laws and Operating Procedures in 
relation to adoption of the PDP Manual?  This strikes me as a very large task 
that someone thinks is "in-scope" and could affect how we treat this Charter 
issue.  Anne

2013
Dear all,
I would welcome working through this document online to craft a revised Charter 
that indeed reflects the current SCI mandate.
In that regard, I would also welcome a deeper discussion on the issue that 
Mikey raised on the call, i.e., the substantive change from polishing 
implementation issues from the last GNSO review versus continuing to do this 
work on issues that arise within the Council or from Working Groups.
I understand from the BC and other constituencies, as well as from the GNSO 
Chair, that there is an expectation that the SCI continue to serve but I 
personally am agnostic.  Having said that, those of us who have been on the SCI 
for some time will also recognize that we have been called on to deal with more 
current issues than those that came from implementation.
Kind regards,
RA

Importance: High
Dear SCI members,
Attached is the SCI Charter as revised during the SCI meeting on 04 June 2013.  
The changes from today's meeting were grammatical corrections in the General 
and Working Method sections.  The other changes that are redlined and the 
comments are those proposed by the SCI Charter Drafting Team, and the inclusion 
of the Chair and Vice Chair election process as previous discussed and agreed 
to by the SCI.
Please send any comments to the list and this item will be on the agenda for 
the next SCI meeting that will be scheduled in July based on the Doodle poll.
Best regards,
Julie
Julie Hedlund, Policy Director
