[CCWG-Accountability] Welcome note

[Dr Eberhard W Lisse]

Thomas, Mathieu, 

that is what I was going to suggest, because I can not find anywhere in the charter that ICG is mentioned as a member. Nor participant or liaison, for that matter. 

I will not be humiliated or offended if it was pointed out to me that I was wrong, by reference to the relevant provision in charter.


I am also concerned how we are going to get anything done on calls with 165 callers. 

I was part of the FoI Wg, where we "disciplined" ourselves to use Adobe Connect's buttons, ie Raising Hand if we wanted to get the Floor and Thumbs Up if we were in (violent :-)-O) agreement (which was then read in the record by the chair).

So, I propose that we adopt a similar procedure.


I also want to put it on record (ie for discussion tonight) that I do not use Microsoft products, hence all documents produced and/or circulated in a proprietary format need to be accompanied by a version in an open format, ie PDF. 

Using open formats would fit nicely into the accountability theme, anyway.


greetings, el
