RE: [gnso-osc-ops] High Level Operating Principles

["Ron Andruff" <randruff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All good, Ray.  But, to be clear, I did NOT receive any confirmation or a
copy of my own email, so that is why I was following up.

 

Kind regards,

Hi Ron, I believe your comments were distributed to the rest of the
committee with your original e-mail distribution, which should have also
sent you an e-mail as part of the distribution.   But to your point, I was
planning upon sending today a short reminder for our scheduled call tomorrow
and brief agenda, which of course is to include your thought out document.
This will be coming shortly.

 

Ray

Good morning all.  I don't see my comments posted in our section of the
wiki; neither did I receive any confirmation of receipt from either Ray or
Rob.  I would be most grateful to know if, in fact, my comments were
received and to know when they will be distributed to the rest of the
committee.

 

Thanks in advance for your soonest confirmation.

Chair,

 

Please find attached my high-level principles for discussion this Wednesday.
The principles themselves still need to be extracted from the broad
thinking, but I believe the general text will be helpful for our
discussions.  I apologize that due to the Easter Weekend I was delayed in
getting them out to the committee.

 

Julie/Rob: Could you kindly posts these on the wiki for the rest of the
committee?  Thank you.

 

Kind regards,

 

RA

Thank you Julie.  With regards to the high level operating principles, what
we want to do by discussion is create a broad framework to act as a high
level guide to future Council members on the one hand but also to anyone
interested in a quick understanding to the question of: "What is the GNSO
Council for?"  The good news is that we know the answer: "A strategic
manager of the policy process".

 

For even more good news, we have Ken Stubbs and Tony Holmes actively
participating in this work team where each has mountains of experience at
the Council level going back 10 years and through some evolutions.  For the
rest of us, it might be a good approach for us to pretend we've just heard
of ICANN, that it has a policy process including a "Council", and want to
learn how the organization goes about this.  In this scenario, I am likely
to start at the Council web site and work my way from there.  So, what is
the first thing I learn?  Maybe I click on the link to "Operating
Principles".  What do they see?  That's where I am at.

 

As a general guide, we have ICANN's mission and core values as sort of
parameters to stay within.  We have Ken and Tony that can maybe be more
focused from actual experience while staying high level as it pertains to
the Council moving managing the policy process.  I am specifically calling
upon their talents and expertise in this regard.  Each of us can do some
research looking at the high level principles of other organizations, as
many have them for good reason pertaining to what it is they do.

 

I am going to start with a level principle for open discussion:

 

High Level Principle:  To ensure scope of policy pertains to the DNS.

 

Here's my purpose for it:  Often people, especially people not so familiar
with ICANN, develop an assumption that ICANN is about managing the
"Internet".  So people come into it starting from the wrong place then to be
let down or worse put forth material effort - and often quality effort -
into various ICANN policy fora only to find resistance not understanding
why.  I think the Council can help here as a strategic manager of the policy
process with a high level principle that assists in everyone starting from
the same place without getting granular.

 

This is open for discussion.  In addition, I would ask for each of us to
develop a high level principle as I have done and briefly explain your
purpose for it.

 

Ray
