RE: [gnso-osc-csg] Uniformity

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would add that there is precidence for reopening issues.  In the new gTLD 
process, several issues have been reopened.   Our goal is to get the strongest 
possible consensus as possible.  We cannot do that by excluding key view points.

        I am not aware of any restriction about reopening an issue. Regardless, 
everyone in the subgroup must be given the opportunity to voice their support 
for a position and thereby be counted in the determination of rough consensus 
on the issue.

        Apologies for the short response earlier. Zahid I refer you to the BGC 
Report:   

         

        The BGC Report at p.43 mandated the development of the following: 

        1.      "...constituency-developed participation rules for all 
constituencies that encourage openness, transparency and accountability. The 
rules must adhere to the following  principles.." 
        2.      "..clear operating principles for each constituency to ensure 
that all constituencies function in a representative, open, transparent and 
democratic manner. Operating procedures adopted by constituencies should 
reflect common principles and follow these guidelines:"[1] 

        The BGC summarized this in the following action item at p.46: "Proposed 
Action Item: The Board requests: (i) The GNSO constituencies, with assistance 
from Staff as needed, to develop a set of participation rules and operating 
procedures, consistent with the principles outlined above, which all 
constituencies should abide by. The ICANN Board should ask the constituencies 
to develop and publicize common principles within six months; and to implement 
operating rules and procedures consistent with those principles at that time."

         

        Zahid, this WG spent some 6 months on these issues and I'm afraid I do 
believe there are rules about re-opening old ground. We spent months on literal 
approaches to the BGC. 

         

        Zahid ---I suggest you read all the old minutes and transcript.

        Just listening to the audio of the call I missed. Could someone point 
out to me where the board used the word uniformity in the boards approval of 
the improvements. Having difficulty to find it.
