Re: [soac-newgtldapsup-wg] from ICANN's legal on teh Charter issue

[Eric Brunner-Williams <ebw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Karla,

Thank you for the quick response from corporate counsel. I think this 
means that no bylaws entity's choices, whether a charter is identical, 
or contains a comma or greater of difference, is binding on any other 
bylaws entity's choices, regarding the means to undertake, and the 
resulting work product, of some "joint" program.
In particular, items 3 and 4 found only in the Names Council's charter 
have no meaning other than to constrain the Names Council and its own 
work group (which doesn't appear to have a separate existence).
