RE: [gnso-osc-csg] Actions/Summary: 26 March 2010 Meeting

["Papac, Krista" <Krista.Papac@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Chuck,

I agree there is a lot of clean-up work to be done on the document(s) once we 
agree on the content.  Another example is standardizing Stakeholder Groups, 
Constituencies, Interest Groups, ie. {GROUPs} and how we consistently refer to 
them throughout the document(s).

New Gartner Report: Successful Software Escrow Requires Planning and Negotiation
Gartner advises: "It is also important that the licensee continue to track the 
software vendor's financials and viability annually, because any signs of 
financial problems would justify the cost of verification services." Continue

I don't understand why there appear to be edits made in quotations from the BGC 
report (e.g., Section 1.1)

After finalizing this document in terms of content, I suggest that a clean MS 
Word version be created and that a new redline version be created with minor, 
non-substantial edits be done because the wording is very poor in lots of 
cases, probably because of the many edits.  I did not comment on these kinds of 
edits below.

In II.1.c, I think "A member who has served two consecutive terms on the 
Executive Committee must remain out of office for one full term prior to 
serving any subsequent term as a member of the Executive Committee." should be 
changed to "A member who has served four consecutive years on the Executive 
Committee must remain out of office for one full term prior to serving any 
subsequent term as a member of the Executive Committee."  I think the same 
change applies to II.4.

II.3.a (formerly b) has what appears to be an incomplete sentence: "should be 
open and publicly archived --with posting rights limited to members at the 
election of the".

II.9 needs some serious editing.

II.11 - Not sure a handbook is worth the effort if the recommendations are 
concisely and clearly written.

II.12 - What is the purpose of this: "We recommend that all recommendations 
above, apply also to the Contracted House Stakeholder Groups." ?  I thought the 
plan was to refer to Constituencies and SGs in all cases.

Who is the "we" in Part IV?  What is the purpose of this section?  Why are the 
subsections numbered 3.x?

This document is way too long.

Using a wiki is terribly ineffecience for such a long document.

Chuck
