[gnso-vi-feb10] Revised motion for the Council

["Mike O'Connor" <mike@xxxxxxxxxx>]

hi all,

Margie and i have revised the motion based on the conversation during today's 
call.  see if this works for you...

Motion to Forward the Revised Initial Report on the Vertical Integration PDP to 
the ICANN Board.
Whereas, on 28 January 2010, the GNSO Council approved a policy development 
process (PDP) on the topic of vertical integration between registries and 
registrars;
Whereas the VI Working Group has produced its Revised Initial Report and has 
presented it to the GNSO Council on 18 August; and,

Whereas, the GNSO Council recognizes that the Revised Initial Report does not 
include any recommendations that have achieved a consensus within the VI 
Working Group, and instead reflects the current state of the work of the VI 
Working Group;

Whereas, the GNSO Council has reviewed the Revised Initial Report, and desires 
to forward the Revised Initial Report to the ICANN Board;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT:

RESOLVED, that the GNSO Council appreciates the hard work and tremendous effort 
shown by each member of the VI PDP working group in developing the Revised 
Initial Report on an expedited basis;

RESOLVED FURTHER, that the Council hereby agrees to forward the Revised Initial 
Report to the ICANN Board as a snapshot of the current state of the ongoing 
deliberations of the VI Working Group;
RESOLVED FURTHER, that this resolution is not an endorsement or approval by the 
GNSO Council of the contents of the Revised Initial Report at this time;     

RESOLVED FURTHER, that the GNSO Council directs Staff to make the appropriate 
notifications to the ICANN Secretary and to the community.

thanks,

mikey
