Dear SCI members, please provide your informal responses to the two questions 
below by 20:00 UTC on Thursday February 4.

 

Lori and I are finalizing the Chair’s report to Council.  Staff has prepared 
some draft slides for this purpose and we will be making minor edits.  For 
purposes of completing these edits, it would be helpful for each member to 
weigh in on the two questions below.  (Please note this is an informal inquiry  
– not a formal Consensus Call since these topics do not involve a formal SCI 
recommendation to Council.)

 

1.       In connection with the question of establishing a procedure for 
friendly amendments in the Council Operating Procedures, should SCI undertake 
this work?

 

2.       In connection with the question of considering the application of the 
10 day waiver rule to resubmission of motions in the Operating Procedures, 
should SCI undertake this work?

 

 

With respect to Question 1, I have not heard any disagreement or objection in 
the January 20 call or on the list, but Mary Wong is very concerned that only 
three people have provided comment and feels it is quite important for SCI to 
have the results of a “straw poll” on the topic of friendly amendments.

 

With respect to Topic 2, I understand that both Greg and Amr believe this topic 
should be addressed, but Avri does not.  Again, there is concern that comment 
from three SCI members is incomplete.  

 

Regarding other topics discussed in the January call and on the list since that 
time, I believe it is clear that those topics come under the “periodic review” 
element in our Charter and require at a minimum (1) Review and discussion of 
the Westlake Report and (2) formulation of a proposed plan under the SCI’s 
“periodic review” responsibilities as to which we will need formal consensus 
for the purpose of making a recommendation to Council.  I would like to suggest 
that SCI work toward adopting such a “periodic review” recommendation under its 
Charter in time for the Buenos Aires meeting but realize that others may have 
different thoughts.   This can be explored further  in future calls.

 

Thank you,

Anne

Thanks Julie.  I will work with Lori on this as we hear further thoughts on the 
list.

Anne,

 

I can assist by preparing a couple of slides.  I can look back at your message, 
but ideally the slides should just have very brief bullet points.  If you and 
Lori have some brief points that you would like to send me separately in an 
email I can incorporate these into slides in the template we are using for 
Singapore presentations.

 

Best regards,

Julie

  Hi Avri,

  Lori and I will schedule the SCI Chair’s Report for the first ten minutes of 
the time with Council.  (Lori, I will come to you off list regarding this.)  
Thanks to staff for pointing out that the SCI Chair must report at each ICANN 
public meeting.

   

  Many thanks Avri for your thorough and sincere explanation of your thinking 
on the best SCI working method.  This  deserves further discussion as to our 
working process in the next SCI call.  I honestly don’t think there were any 
inconsistent positions taken and again the mp3 may assist on that point.  Have 
you had time to listen to it or to read the transcript?  

   

  Regarding the remainder of your observations, I will come back later today 
with some further thoughts for discussion on the points you have made.

   

  Have a great day in all respects and thank you for your active contributions 
to the list.

  Anne
