[gnso-policyimpl-dt] RE: Proposed agenda and updated draft charter for review

["Aikman-Scalese, Anne" <AAikman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Chuck,
I do agree with your observations about time and resources, but certainly do 
not agree with the third observation.  In fact I think the GNSO structure will 
be a huge obstacle to implementing improvements in the way the ICANN Board 
reacts to GNSO policy recommendations in the implementation phase and would 
certainly make it extremely difficult to amend the ByLaws per Jeff's request.  
We can bury this now but it will absolutely come up in the Working Group, 
especially given the number of folks who have no vote on the GNSO Council.
Anne

I do not support adding the topic of GNSO structure for several reasons:

1.       It will be part of the GNSO Review process, which will be a major 
undertaking.

2.       It will be a very controversial topic and hence will consume large 
amounts of time and resources and would likely detract from the main mission of 
the WG.

3.       The topic of policy & implementation is not dependent on GNSO 
structure.

Thanks,Marika.  Per my previous e-mail, I would amend Task 7. to state that the 
WG will review not only the ICANN By-Laws but also the GNSO structure in terms 
of multistakeholder participation.  So I would suggest as follows:

7.     Review the ICANN Bylaws and GNSO voting structure with a particular 
focus on the GNSO PDP<http://www.icann.org/en/about/governance/bylaws#AnnexA> 
and associated GNSO PDP 
Manual<http://gnso.icann.org/council/annex-2-pdp-manual-13jun13-en.pdf>, to 
determine:

a.      What elements of the process provide guidance regarding implementation 
of policies

b.      Whether there are any gaps in the Bylaws or process that leave 
ambiguity regarding implementation

c.  Whether the current structure of the GNSO is adequate to represent all 
stakeholders interests in the implementation of policy



Thank you, Anne
