Thanks Robin.  Please feel free to draft a statement but I caution you
about assuming that we are all on the same page on this.  You can begin
with that assumption in drafting your statement for discussion and then
we will test it in our discussion.

I am also keen to work on a statement regarding the independent
objector.   However, we should be sure we are on the same page.  There
was agreement on the call last week that we do not want an independent
objector, so that should be removed from DAG4.

 

We have to remember to keep objections to new gtlds "objective" as per
principle 1.  If no religion, no govt, no community, no business, no
cultural org, no person, etc. objects to a proposal for a new gtld,
there is little grounds for expecting an "independent objector" to have
any.  That would hardly be an "objective" standard, if none of these
interests objects, but the ICANN Morality Tzar can be secretly lobbied
into filing an "independent" objection.   So that is the direction I
expect a statement from this group to flow.  Is there any disagreement
with this approach?

 

Thanks,

Robin

Thanks Evan.  I believe Richard is working with Bertrand on the
community class of objections.  We added it as a 15th thread today.
Please comment on what Richard submits to the list.

 

Regarding the Independent Objector, please draft a statement and/or
recommendation for group consideration by end of the day on Thursday.

        I would like to help with wording about the Independent
Objector, as

        well as any changes to the community class of objections (if
that is

        still being considered).
