In my opinion, it would be better to delay briefly than to add questions that 
produce unhelpful results.

Further clarification would be very much appreciated as Westlake is finalizing 
the 360 Assessment in preparation for launch on Monday.
The purpose of the Working Groups was  based on the information posted on the 
GNSO web site - http://gnso.icann.org/en/basics/101/wg-operations.

Thanks,
Larisa

Thanks for this input, Larisa.  I will defer to Chuck and other members for a 
better response to your proposed question, but the purpose of a WG is not: 
"enlisting broad participation from throughout the Internet community" as I 
understand it.

Chuck, your thoughts?

Kind regards,

RA

Chuck and Ron,
Please note that the work of the working groups will likely be considered by 
Westlake as part of the other data gathering phases of the review - review and 
analysis of documents and one on one interviews.  The GNSO Review Working Group 
along with policy staff can provide guidance to Westlake Governance on which 
Working Groups would be good candidates for review.

As for the inclusion of the Working Group model in the 360 Assessment, what do 
you think about the following:

New question:  The general purpose of a GNSO Working Group is to accomplish a 
chartered task by enlisting broad participation from throughout the Internet 
community.  The Working Group model implemented as the result of the last GNSO 
Review is effective in accomplishing its general purpose.

The question would have all the same answer options as other questions, 
including a text box for additional feedback.

Thanks,

Larisa

I am fine with that Ron if it doesn't cause too much delay.

Dear Chuck and all,

Yes, but... ...you make a good point that we are not delving into Working 
Groups at all when, in point of fact, the changes made during the last GNSO 
review moved us to the Working Group model.  For my part, I think it would be 
prudent to have at least one question on the effectiveness of WGs and perhaps 
another to flesh out the community's overall view of them.  Let's do our best 
to address this key aspect.  Thanks for bringing it forward Chuck.

Kind regards,

RA

I just completed the survey in a little over 30 minutes.  I answered questions 
for the GNSO Council and the RySG but I did not respond the last three open 
ended questions.

I think the assessment is looking very good.  Because working groups are such 
an important part of the GNSO, I think it is unfortunate that there are no 
questions about them.  At the same time I also am not in favor of trying to 
accomplish too much in one survey so I am not advocating that we add more 
questions at this time.

Chuck

Dear All,
The Westlake Governance team modified the 360 Assessment based on feedback 
received last week.  The revised 360 Assessment is available 
here<https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/GNSO360ReviewUATv3>.  Please provide your 
final feedback and any additional comments from your constituencies  by  August 
1, 23:59 UTC.

The responder now has the option of skipping the detailed questions pertaining 
to the GNSO Council, Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies.  A responder who is 
directly involved or is a close observer in any of these groups, will be able 
to answer detailed questions for as many groups as he/she would like.

The introductory language will be further refined to provide a clear roadmap of 
the different sections of the Assessment and the options available to the 
responder.

Please note that staff is in the process of completing a detailed proofing and 
editing to ensure proper spelling, capitalization, definition of acronyms, etc.

Thank you for your feedback and commitment to making this assessment useful and 
informative.
