    Hi,<br>
    <br>
    I will also be attending the intersessional.<br>
    <br>
    I am, of course, fine with delivering a report to the council.   <br>
    Supposed to do that from time to time in any case.<br>

      Meeting on 13 January will conflict with the Non-Contracted
      Parties House Intersessional, for those attending (of which I am
      one).  Of course, such things are sometimes unavoidable.

            <div>Dear Anne and SCI members,</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>The GNSO Secretariat can assist in scheduling an SCI
              call at the usual time of 2000 UTC on Tuesday, 13
              January.  The staff and Secretariat also can assist in
              requesting 15 minutes for Avri on the GNSO Council
              schedule in Singapore to discuss the SCI direction for
              2015.  Whether the time will be granted will depend of
              course on the Council's workload, which will as noted be
              taken up largely with issues relating to the IANA
              stewardship transition and accountability.</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>With respect to the Charter, please refer to the wiki
              at: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                href="https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosci/2.+Charter";
                
target="_blank">https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosci/2.+Charter</a>. 
              Please note in particular the General and Working Method
              sections.  In the General section the following sentence
              indicates the scope of the SCI's remit: "The SCI is also
              responsible for considering requests concerning issues
              related to the GNSO Council processes and procedures and
              to Working Group guidelines that have been identified
              either by the GNSO Council or a group chartered by the
              GNSO Council as needing discussion."  As per the Charter
              the GNSO Council generally has requested that the SCI
              should address specific issues relating to its processes
              and procedures (rather than the SCI making the request to
              the Council).  See the work completed by the SCI since its
              inception: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                
href="https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=49350790";
                
target="_blank">https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=49350790</a>. 
              It has nonetheless been noted on the SCI wiki as of
              October 2014 that the SCI has suggested to the Council
              that it take up the following two issues:  1) a full
              review of the Working Group Consensus Levels and 2) a full
              review of the GNSO Operating Procedures.  See: <a
                moz-do-not-send="true"
                
href="https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=49357334";
                
target="_blank">https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=49357334</a>. 
              Also as noted by Mary Wong on 18 December, prior to
              assigning new issues to the SCI it is possible that the
              Council may wish to consider the results of the first
              report of the GNSO review, as well its tasks with respect
              to the IANA stewardship transition and accountability.</div>

Julie,</span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span>My goal would be for
                          SCI to have a letter to GNSO composed in time
                          for Avri to present it in Singapore GNSO
                          working sessions as a menu of items which GNSO
                          Council could choose from to provide
                          assignments to SCI.  My question is whether a
                          January 13 call would be sufficient time for
                          SCI to have a discussion leading to
                          preparation of the letter to Council based on
                          projects we have considered in the past and
                          that Ron and Greg have outlined.  </span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span>I do not think that SCI
                          work should stop due to the IANA transition
                          issues.  One question might be how SCI can
                          best help GNSO in addressing these issues. 
                          For example, if SCI reviews PDP consensus
                          levels on a more thorough basis than
                          previously examined, would that improve ICANN
                          Accountability as it relates to the
                          transition?  Do these consensus levels or any
                          other aspect of the PDP process have a
                          significant impact on accountability?</span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span>So from my point of
                          view,
                        </span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Question 1 is:  Can we
                          schedule a call as late as January 13 and
                          still get Avri 15 minutes on the GNSO Council
                          schedule to discuss SCI direction for 2015?</span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Question 2:  What work
                          is within SCI’s Charter that will assist
                          Council the most in relation to the IANA
                          transition and overall ICANN 
Accountability?</span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                      <p class="MsoNormal"><span>I would propose to
                          discuss these questions in a January 13 call
                          to be scheduled by Julie.  As to whether we
                          can get on the Council schedule in working
                          sessions in Singapore for this purpose, I
                          think we need to rely on Avri and Glen for
                          that purpose.  Avri, your thoughts?</span></p>

                            you might want to have it to the Council by

                            motions and documents.  However, this may
                            not be possible since it wouldn't allow time
                            for SCI members to discuss a letter during a
                            call, and members also are likely to be out
                            during the next two weeks for holidays so
                            they may not be able to make much progress
                            on the list.  In addition, the ICANN offices
                            are closed beginning at Noon on 24 December
                            through Friday, 2 January 2015.  They will
                            reopen on 5 January. We can certainly
                            schedule a meeting at the usual time on the
                            6th to kick things off.  Let us know if you
                            would like us to schedule a meeting on the
