Claudio, Thank you very much for your helpful clarfications! I will update the document accordingly. Best regards, Julie -----Original Message----- From: Claudio Di Gangi [mailto:CDiGangi@xxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, May 01, 2009 12:12 PM To: Victoria McEvedy; Olga Cavalli; jahedlund@xxxxxxxxxxx Cc: OSC-CSG Work Team Subject: RE: [gnso-osc-csg] ACTION ITEM 1: OSC-CSG Work Team 24 April Meeting Julie, Thank you, I thought you did good work on this in a very short time period! The document indicates that the IPC does not have term limits for constituency officers. The IPC charter section regarding constituency officers is Section IV, and term limits are described in this section (see Section B. Terms of Office.) The document also states that: The IPC web site or charter does not appear to describe processes to encourage global participation. This is a specific responsibility assigned to the elected officers of the constituency, who are charged with ?reaching out to any other interested IP groups around the world and encourage them to participate in the IPC.? see Section IV. IPC Officers, Subsection C (2) F. Powers. Victoria, In the IPC, both Category 3 (international intellectual property organizations) and Category 2 (local, state, or purely national intellectual property organizations) members are entitled to vote. See IPC Charter Section III. IPC Council, Subsection D. Also see Sections VI. Elections. Subsection 6.

I think we ought to have given you some more guidance as I?m afraid the exercise is too limited at present to be of real use. It may be that the team needs to identify other criteria for inclusion. I note that the IPC has classes of membership and not all can vote. In fact ?only international organizations can have a vote. I filed a Minority Report detailing issues with ?participation? in the IPC. You will see why membership eligibility and admission templates do not encompass these sorts of issues ?nor does our chart in so far as it is similarly limited.

As we wait for the analysis of the proposed stakeholder group charters, I would encourage each constituecy representative in our working team to review the document and make suggestions of changes and/or additions. Regards to all, Olga 2009/4/30 Julie Hedlund <jahedlund@xxxxxxxxxxx> Dear Work Team Members, Attached for your review and consideration is a draft preliminary analysis of existing constituencies against the criteria in subtasks 1, 2, and 3 in response to Action Item 1 from the 24 April 2009 meeting. This document also is linked to the wiki at: https://st.icann.org/icann-osc/index.cgi?constituency_operations_team. In this preliminary analysis there appeared to be many instances where information did not seem to be listed in constituency charters or web sites. These instances are indicated in the attached document with an "X" or "? NEED INPUT." In these cases perhaps those Work Team members who represent constituencies may be able to provide suggestions for locating the information if it is available. Soon to follow is an analysis of the proposed stakeholder group charters. This task likely will require less research as there are no sources other than the charters (such as web sites) to analyze. Thank you very much for your assistance. Your comments and suggestions for improving this document are greatly appreciated. Best regards, Julie Julie Hedlund Policy Consultant Attachment:
