RE: [gnso-osc] Revised Agenda for 15 Dec OSC Meeting

["Metalitz, Steven" <met@xxxxxxx>]

I would prefer the approach suggested in 7.a.ii.2 -- work team chairs
become members of OSC. 
 
As noted in previous message I am unsure what time of day on Mondays is
being proposed but in any event would not be available to meet on Monday
morning EST 12/22.  Anytime in the morning EST would work for me on
12/29.

        d.      We will not meet on Monday, 29 Dec 08

        f.      Hopefully we can start meeting no more often than

starting on 5 Jan or 12 Jan?

6.      Confirm finalization of OSC charter and distribution to the
Council. 
7.      Finalize draft work team charters in preparation for work team
review. 

        a.      Issues raised on the OSC email list:

                                                   i.            Should
we add a recommendation that there be at least 2 OSC members on each
work team?

1)      Who on the OSC will volunteer to join the work teams?

a.       GNSO Operations?

b.      Constituency/Stakeholder Group Operations?

c.       Communications?

                                                 ii.            Should
we recommend that the work team chairs should be OSC members?

1)      Who on the OSC will volunteer to chair the work teams?

a.       GNSO Operations?

b.      Constituency/Stakeholder Group Operations?

c.       Communications?

2)      If the chairs are not OSC members, should we add them to the
OSC?

                                                iii.            Will a
"full consensus of the members" approach be successful for work teams?
Should we add a comment asking the work teams to make a recommendation
in that regard?  We could leave Rob's comment in the draft as guidance
for the work team.

                                               iv.            For the
GNSO Operations Work Team charter should we include something regarding
the following Board recommendation: "a restructured GNSO Council should
move away from being a legislative body concerned primarily with voting
towards becoming a smaller, more focused strategic entity"?

                                                 v.            Should we
add a section called something like "Work Team Rules" and include the
rules we have been using for WGs to the extent that they fit?

        b.      Other issues?

7.      Finalize message to GNSO Council to solicit work team members
for the three work teams. 

        a.      Refer to Rob's draft invitation to the OSC list. 
        b.      Action item for Chuck: send invitation to Council list.

8.      Identify other lists where the solicitation for work team
members should be sent. 

        a.      Action item for Rob: forward Chuck's message with
invitation to other identified lists.

9.      Action items for next meeting. 

        a.      See above for Chuck & Rob 
        b.      Other?

10.     AOB
