Re: [gnso-improvem-impl-sc] Charter revision -- what is our goal?
thanks Avri and Julie, your posts are really helpful. what i'm hearing is that the goal is to keep the focus on the original intent of making sure that there is a way to tidy up flaws in the work of the prior committees, and not be an ongoing "rules committee" for the GNSO or the PDP. that helps me a lot in reviewing the new draft, and i think some of the edits may have missed this mark. i'll churn through the draft with this in mind. one question comes right to mind -- should we sharpen up some "sunset" language in the charter, to make it clear when we are done? it may be that the reason there was no language about transitioning the Chair is because the framers didn't envision this thing lasting very long. mikey On Jun 6, 2013, at 2:53 PM, Avri Doria <avri@xxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi, > > To add.
