Dear WT Members,
Reference to discussion during last Friday conference call, given below is a 
write-up on Subtask 1.2 and relates to widening the scope of this clause.
Please post your comments as early as possible so that these could be discussed 
in Next meeting if so required.
best,

Subtask 1
 
1.2.      Membership
 
a.         Information about applications and admission decisions is publicly 
available.
(Suggested Amendment:           Information about admission requirements of an 
interested party as a Member is available in clear and simple terms and an 
Application Form is publically available. Admission Procedures are defined in 
clear and simple terms. Also, status of an Application and Admission Decision 
is publically available)
 
b.         Clear avenue of appeal for an applicant rejection to a neutral third 
party 
(Suggested Amendment:           ‘an application rejection’ OR ‘a rejected 
applicant’).
 
c.         Termination of Membership: Clear and Simple Rules and clear Avenue 
of Appeal to a neutral third party.
(Suggested insertion of this clause in Subtask 1.2.)
 
1.         EXPLAINATION
a.         Clause a. is further elaborated to make it clearer, encompassing 
admission requirements and procedures.
b.         A phrase in clause b is suggested to make it grammatically correct.
c.         New clause c is inserted as some Constituencies have rules for 
Termination of Membership.
 
2.         Suggestion for ‘Neutral Third Party’
Clauses b and c above speak of a ‘Neutral Third Party’.
Here, a question arises: Should the formation of ‘Neutral Third Party’ be left 
to the Constituencies or ICANN should have an overseeing power?
 
In my opinion, either ICANN should appoint such a body or approve the 
constitution of such a body by a Constituency.
