Re: [pdp-pcceg-feb06] Statement of Interest for Ross Rader

maureen...

i think your approach is basically sound here but i do believe that a 
quarterly "ratification" by each council member would be a good procedure.
it can be accoumplished quite easily by a quick response to a query by 
the gnso secretariat.

as to the "interests" covered in this statement, i believe that specific 
reference s/b made to "executory" or "contingent" interests as well.. 
icann council can provide any explainations & elaborations on this 
category to the council.
