I could jump into the void, Ray, but would recommend that if there are only
two of us on the call, e.g. Wolf-Ulrich and myself, we postpone one week.

Thank you Julie.  Literally in the last 2 minutes, I've been presented with
an urgent conflict to the time of our scheduled call today.  I am able to
participate for only about the first 10 minutes.  Ron, is there any chance
you can chair the call today?  Avri has also notified of a conflict that
will likely cause her to miss or sparsely attend today's call.

Dear Work Team members,

I thought I would forward for our reference on today's call the comments Ron
has provided on the SOI/DOS document.

Best regards,

Julie

Dear Work Team members,
 
I thought that I had posted my comments on the SOI/DOI some time ago, but am
not sure.  Therefore I apologize if I am double posting.
 
Also, I support Avri's nomination to Vice Chair.
 
Kind regards,
 
RA

Dear Work Team members,

Here are the action items and summary of the discussion from today's
meeting.  Please note that our next meeting will be held in two weeks on
Wednesday, 10 February, at the usual time of 1700 UTC (09:00 PST, 12:00 EST,
18:00 CEST, 19:00 Jerusalem, 00:00 Taiwan).  This information also is posted
to our wiki at:
https://st.icann.org/icann-osc/index.cgi?gnso_operations_team.  Please let
me know if you have any questions.  Thank you.

Best regards,

Julie

Action Items:
1. Abstentions: The Work Team approved final recommended changes to Section
4.0 of the GNSO Operating Procedures.  Work Team members should review the
recommended changes. If no member objects to the recommendations by Monday,
01 February, they will be forwarded to ICANN Legal for review and then to
the Operations Steering Committee.  (See previous message: "ACTION ITEM:
Final Draft Abstention Procedures" also sent today.)
2. Statements/Disclosures of Interest: Work Team members should review the
attached draft document and provide comments to the list in preparation for
a discussion on the call scheduled for 10 February.
3.  Vice Chair:  The Work Team members are requested to respond to the
nomination of Avri Doria to be the Vice Chair of the Work Team.

Summary of Discussion:
1. Nairobi meeting: Work Team members determined that it was not necessary
to hold a face-to-face meeting at the ICANN meeting in Nairobi, Kenya in
March.
2. Board Seat 13: The Work Team members discussed the fact that the GNSO
Council Chairs have decided to draft revised interim procedures and a motion
for approval for the 28 January Council meeting to address the need to have
procedures in place to hold an election for Board Seat 13. The Council and
OSC will determine how to address the need for general procedures for the
election to Board seats 13 and 14, to be incorporated in the GNSO Operating
Procedures.
3. Abstentions: Work Team members accepted the draft recommended procedures
for handling abstentions and decided that they should be incorporated into
Section 4.0 -- Voting as a new subsection 4.5. Ken Bour agreed to revise the
procedures and Julie Hedlund agreed to send the procedures to Work Team
members for review. Ray Fassett agreed to forward Julie's message along with
the document Steve Metalitz and Kristina Rosette for reference of the Work
Team's actions. If no Work Team member objects to the procedures by 01
February, they will be sent to ICANN Legal staff for review and, when that
review is complete, they will be sent to the OSC for consideration along
with a draft motion, with the goal to have the GNSO Council approve the
procedures in their meeting on 10 March in Nairobi, Kenya.
4. Vice Chair: The Chair and the Work Team members on the call nominated
Avri Doria to be Vice Chair of the Work Team. Avri accepted pending approval
by the full Work Team. Ray Fassett agreed to ask the full Work Team to
respond.
