Hello All,

 

Perhaps what is ever communication is sent to the Board could include a
little footnote that there was even a lack of consensus within the VI on how
to forward the report to the Board J

 

Best regards,

 

Michael

So we shouldn?t do anything that is not specifically provided for?  That
would require the PDP process to include every conceivable action or require
the Council to act on a motion if it is not specifically provided for.

Actually it's the other way around. Show me in the PDP process where taking
action like this on an interim report is provided for. It isn't, and I think
for good reason.

I have looked at it very closely Tim, many times.  Please point me to
anything in the Bylaws that supports your opinion.

In a word, no. Please review the PDP process in the bylaws.

I understand that Tim. And as the entity that commissioned the VI WG, isn't
the Council able to pass on information to the Board that has been
officially sent to it by the WG?

Stephane, that simply is not true. The VI is a formal PDP WG. There is a
process to follow and Council is responsible for manging that process, not
taking liberties with it.

I agree with Avri that it is the Council's prerogative to send information
to the Board when it deems it necessary.

 

I agree with Jeff that the wording of the motion should make it clear that
this is an interim report being sent for information purposes while the WG
continues its work.

 

As such, the currently redrafted motion looks fine to me.

I agree with Jeff. And even if the Board requested that we do this, I would
first want to clearly understand why it did so. It is not needed for the
Board to review the interim report, so if they requested this then they have
some other reason in mind.

Avri - I don't understand your arguments.

But, I do not believe that the Council should get in the habit of formally
submitting interim reports to the Board. That is a formal action under the
pdp process in the bylaws (the act of forwarding something to the board). 

All I am asking as the insertion of the concept of this being sent in
response to a board request and that this is not a finished product.

I really don't understand why you believe that is a controversial request.

Hi,

But aren't you trying to establish a precedent that the GNSO Council may not
send status updates to the Board when it thinks it should? I think that is a
bad precedent.

Sending updates seems to me to fall well within the prerogatives of a
manager of the process. they have the right, in fact responsibility, to
communicate whatever they feel needs to be communicated as long as they
don't mislead anyone about the status of a group or its efforts.

I recommend leaving the motion as is.

a.

They really appreciate the efforts of every member of the group? hmmm.

like to see here for purpose of posterity and so this does not establish bad
precedent is a WHEREAS clause the recognizes that this is being forwarded to
the Board in response to a request from the Board to do so (even if such
request was informal). You can add it to an already existing WHEREAS clause,
but it should be in there that this is not the GNSO Council doing this on
its own, but rather is in response to a Board request.
