[soac-mapo] New 4.1 language

["Mary Wong" <Mary.Wong@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Would this work better as a possible replacement for the existing Rec. 4.1 
language?
 
"In addition to the Board's ability to seek external expert advice under 
Article XI.A of the Bylaws, it may appoint a third party entity to administer 
the purely procedural aspects of an objection that has been filed. Such a 
provider shall be appointed under contract for a fixed period of time 
appropriate for the application timetable. It shall not provide expert advice 
nor recommendations regarding the outcome of an objection, although it may, if 
requested by the Board, assist in seeking appropriate international law experts 
for particular objections. As in all other areas of ICANN policy, the Board 
will ultimately decide whether to adopt or reject the advice of any external 
experts it consults in relation to an objection.''
 
Cheers
Mary
