[gnso-osc-csg] RE: Comments for Today's Meeting

[Claudio Di Gangi <cdigangi@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear Work Team members,

On Task 1, Subtask 1, Section 3, here is some proposed revised language on this 
recommendation:

To improve accessibility, transparency, and accountability, all GROUPs should 
establish and publish a consensus building model or process in their Bylaws or 
Charter. The process or model should be based on the principles of 
Participation, Representativeness, Process Integrity, Flexibility, 
Transparency, Openness, and other norms common to the GNSO WG Model.

3. PARA 2
IT IS RECOMMENDED GROUPS SHOULD FUNCTION ON THE GNSO WG MODEL FOR THE PURPOSES 
OF REACHING CONSENSUS AND THE USE OF VOTING SHOULD BE MINIMISED AS MUCH AS 
POSSIBLE.  (NB this was the original text which we agreed prior to Claudio's 
new version).

As to Subtask 1.2 -I have no comments as to the edits so far.

As to 1.5 -this is self explanatory and a formal, written and transparent 
method of communicating from Chair to Chair is recommended in future.
