We were given an assignment yesterday of going back to our Constituencies and 
Stakeholder groups with some question or other.

It is also seemed like a questionnaire would be prepared.  I think this is a 
good idea so that we are all collecting the same information and we do not end 
up trying to compare, apples, eggs and rocks.  I would like to suggest that 
this group agree on that questionnaire before we start using it.

Also, I have noticed that our group does not have very diverse participation, 
i.e we are missing people from some of the GNSO constituencies and Stakeholder 
groups.  If this was a working group under the rules of working groups are 
efforts would be denigrated by this skewed participation make up.  I do not 
recall if there are any guideline for now this extraordinary drafting team 
functions, but the lack of constituency diversity in this group seems like a 
liability to me.  Certainly somebodty has to make sure those constituencies and 
stakeholder group's who are not covered by membership are also consulted on an 
issue this important.



Finally , from the council decision that we never really discussed because it 
wasn't posted until the discussion was gaveled closed, 

"  "Stéphane van Gelder suggested that Jeff Neuman, the

1. Where there any specific details about which work we should continue.  For 
example from listening to the transcript I understood that part of the work 
they expect from us was the completion of reports, including the work on 
gathering and analyzing the written and transcript evidence provided by IOC and 
IFRC.

2. In the drafting of the sentence, will Jeff, as this teams chair be 
consulting with this group on the correct balance to be contained in those 
sentences?

3. To what degree do the upcoming discussion on discussion in the g-council on 
second level protections affect the work of this group in going beyond 
documentation work being done and research on needs and differentiating factors.

Thanks
