[CCWG-ACCT] [Blog] Launching Work Stream 2 in Helsinki

[Guru Acharya]

Hi,

I am confused anout the scoping of WS2 on jurisdiction. Request you to
point me to the transcripts where it was decided that "ICANN's
jurisdiction, place of incorporation and headquarters location are not
within the scope of Work Stream 2 deliberations."
