Re: [gnso-whois-wg] Proposed final version of the group's output report v1.8
Tim Ruiz ha scritto: I certainly hope that such thinking is not the future of ICANN policy making. While I believe that such WGs might be a useful policy making tool, I think the experiences of this WG make it clear that more thought needs to be give as to how such groups are constructed and managed, and how the work product of such groups needs to be produced to avoid doubt as to the legitimacy of its areas of agreement. I also assume that the procedural disagreements that we have been having here have been mostly due to the lack of established processes and of a clear culture about how consensus-based policy making is supposed to work. The IETF has spent 20+ years in coming to agreement on how this kind of process should work (see e.g. RFC 2026). I would hope that the Council and the Board would take care of the extensive work that was made there, when it comes to setting proper rules for these working groups. -- vb.
