RE: [gnso-osc-csg] Actions/Summary: 26 March 2010 Meetingly
Dear work team, In light of some of our list discussions today, I was thinking about our work product on Subtask I and II and the best way we can deliver it to the OSC and have it available as a resource and integrated by existing and new GNSO Groups that may potentially be formed in the future. instead of issuing rules that we have sometimes referred to as "mandatory" which was not the approach taking in the BGC report, I think the GNSO Working Group Guidelines document can serve as a good template for us to follow, in terms of its accessibility, readability, structure, format, tone, and approach. This would also keep implementation consistent across GNSO improvements. this document is attached for reference and i copied the link to it and some of the relevant sections below. thanks claudio --------- see: http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-05feb10-en.htm 1.2. Purpose The objective of this document is to assist Working Groups to optimize productivity and effectiveness by providing a set of guidelines, checklists, templates, and other 'best practice' materials that they can consider and/or utilize, as appropriate, in the process of establishing the WG and throughout its life cycle. 1.3. Intended Audience This document is intended to inform the (potential) members of GNSO Working Groups that have been created or are in the process of being created by a Chartering Organization (e.g. GNSO Council) to achieve or accomplish one or more objectives or outcomes. 1.4. Revisions As further experience is developed in the management, operation and practice of Working Groups, it is intended that this document will be updated when appropriate. Any proposals for updates or changes should be submitted to the GNSO Council for consideration (please contact the GNSO Secretariat for further information). Proposal for consideration by the PPSC: Once all WT documents have been finalized and approved, the GNSO Council should commit to the annual review of these documents to ensure that documents stay up to date. If the Council review determines that it would be timely and appropriate to make changes to these documents, an ad-hoc committee should be formed to make concrete proposals for such changes.
