[gnso-osc-ops] Council resolution on OSC work

[<KnobenW@xxxxxxxxxx>]

2.  Resolution for the extension of the Operating Steering Committee
(OSC)- Policy Process Steering Committee (PPSC) 

 

Motion made by: Chuck Gomes

Seconded by: Wolf-Ulrich Knoben

 

Whereas in October 2008, the GNSO Council established a framework for
implementing the various GNSO Improvements identified and approved by
the ICANN Board of Directors (see - GNSO Council Improvements
Implementation Plan)

Whereas that framework included the formation of two Steering Committees
- the Operations Steering Committee and the Policy Process Steering
Committee - to charter and coordinate the efforts of five community work
teams designed to develop specific recommendations to implement specific
aspects of the improvements;

 Whereas the Council intended the charters of the committees (and their
attendant work teams) to be temporary and not to extend beyond the 2009
annual ICANN meeting without specific action by the Council;

 Whereas the Council extended the terms of those committees until the
Nairobi ICANN meeting ("the end of ICANN's first general meeting in
2010") to allow the GNSO community implementation recommendations work
to continue (see - 24 sept motions);

 Whereas the Council acknowledges the hard work of those work teams and
notes that those committees and their teams are diligently continuing
their work;

 RESOLVED, The Council extends the terms of the Operations Steering
Committee and the Policy Process Steering Committee and their respective
work teams as necessary through the end of the 2010 ICANN annual
meeting. The Council directs each work team chair by the end of the
Brussels ICANN meeting to identify the specific targets and benchmarks
for completing their work and to be prepared to conclude their work as
soon as possible but not later than the 2010 ICANN annual meeting. The
specific expectations, targets and benchmarks for each team should be
shared with the appropriate Steering Committee Chair and the Council by
15 April 2010.

 

Resolution passed unanimously by voice vote of all Council members
present.

Rosemary Sinclair, Adrian Kinderis and Terry Davis absent
