    Dear Colleagues, <br>
    <br>
    This is to mention that, as co chairs, we are closely monitoring
    this discussion. As you know, we introduced this new work plan
    during the last CCWG call, meeting at the time no objection. We are
    however receptive to the concerns raised and welcome constructive
    inputs.<br>
    <br>
    Since I have just finished our CCWG-CWG co-chair coordination call,
    I can however confirm that the main reason for meeting the target
    date we set in Istanbul remains very much up to date : the CWG needs
    clarity on our proposals to confirm its own options. Delay on our
    side might jeopardize their timeline, which in turn affects the ICG,
    etc. <br>
    <br>
    We will get back to the group on Monday, once we also have greater
    clarity on the status of work party progress. <br>
    <br>
    Thanks to all of you for your commitment and inputs, which we
    encourage to focus on the working party inputs at this precise
    point. <br>
    <br>
    Mathieu<br>

                  <div><br>

                  <div>I share your concern and like you I'm not going
                    to be able to attend every general, subgroup and
                    sub-subgroup meeting going forward. We all have
                    lives away from ICANN and invariably there are going
                    to be times when other aspects of our existence need
                    to take priority. I'm just amazed and very grateful
                    that there are those who are able to volunteer and
                    donate such an incredible amount of time to our
                    joint effort. This is an exceptional group of
                    people.</div>
                  <div><br>
                  </div>
                  <div>I'm very happy that our  immediate deadline was
                    shifted from early to late April at the Istanbul
                    meeting. It helped. I too wish we could go forward
                    at an even more reasoned and considered pace. I
                    can't attend the meeting tonight or, frankly, a few
                    other nights where they have been scheduled. I'm
                    committed to this project but I'm also committed to
                    attending my own birthday party later this month. I
                    sort of need to be there for that. So be it. Our
                    CCWG is not operating in isolation and I do
                    understand the need for a tight deadline. I don't
                    like it, but I do understand it.</div>
                  <div><br>
                  </div>
                  <div>I do have one request, though, that would allow
                    me to participate in as complete a manner as I can
                    going forward given my own circumstances. Would it
                    be possible, even at additional cost, to have staff
                    or contracted help to produce complete transcripts
                    of the CCWG and WP sessions on a maximum 24 hour
                    turnaround (or something approaching that)? My
                    concern is that those of us who can't be at every
                    meeting would either not participate in future
                    sessions we could attend, feeling we weren't up to
                    date on matters,  or, even worse, would drag down
                    future proceedings as we tried to understand that
                    which we missed. Audio recordings are nice, but time
                    consuming. Fast track transcripts, I think, could
                    help alleviate some problems caused by the intensive
                    work schedule.</div>

                          all,<br>
                          <br>
                          I find myself in agreement with Eberhard with
                          regard to the steep increase<br>
                          in the number of calls for both the CCWG as
                          well as its subgroups like wp1<br>
                          and acct-legal.<br>
                          <br>
                          It frustrates me to see that, after a period
                          during which we burned a lot<br>
                          of time on -let me politely phrase it as „less
                          relevant and/or out of<br>
                          scope”- subjects and several of us warned
                          against the deadline becoming<br>
                          unreachable, we have know replaced the
                          deadline that has become<br>
                          unrealistic with a work planning that is
                          simply absurd.<br>
                          <br>
                          As a result, we now have roughly a two hour
                          conference call every day of<br>
                          the week, several days with two calls, and
                          thus more calls in a week at<br>
                          unholy hours.<br>
                          I object to this way of working, as it makes
                          the whole process far less<br>
                          inclusive. Many of us have both a demanding
                          job as well as a private life,<br>
                          both of which we cherish. For me it is now
                          simply unavoidable to miss a<br>
                          significant part of the calls and impossible
                          to deal with all the<br>
                          necessary working groups’ work in-between
                          them. I know that this is now<br>
                          the case for quite a number of us.<br>
                          <br>
                          We are rushing forward to reach a deadline
                          which is nothing more by now<br>
                          than a dead line, and in our hurry seem to
                          accept that the process loses<br>
                          inclusiveness, transparency and
                          accountability, leaving us with an outcome<br>
                          that will be of much lower quality.<br>
                          <br>
                          I for one, find this unacceptable.<br>

                          ccTLD/ccNSO policy being<br>
                          &gt;taken over by governments (which as we all
                          know is opposed to the<br>
                          &gt;USG's stated intent.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;The GAC Representative of Denmark has
                          proposed in Istanbul during<br>
                          &gt;the ad-hoc Stress Test Breakfast, what I
                          understand to be a total<br>
                          &gt;removal of ccNSO's policy making powers,
                          in favor of governments<br>
                          &gt;deciding.  Using the words "Out with the
                          Old" he stated that the<br>
                          &gt;RFCs must be done away with.  I am not
                          clear whether this is the<br>
                          &gt;position of the Representative, his
                          government or the GAC, but when<br>
                          &gt;read together with the above, this is not
                          acceptable to me.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;I have not that many concerns with regards
                          to Delegation of a ccTLD<br>
                          &gt;(after establishment), including a
                          Transfer of an exsiting ccTLD.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;But as far as Revocation of an incumbent
                          ccTLD Manager is concerned,<br>
                          &gt;I have stated numerous times, that we need
                          to preserve the existing<br>
                          &gt;rights of incumbent ccTLD Managers.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;This is NOT negotiable.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;And the best way of doing this is by way
                          of the Framework of<br>
                          &gt;Interpretation Principles.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;Mr Chehade has apparently in public (and
                          on the record) accused<br>
                          &gt;senior ccTLD managers of not knowing how
                          the IANA functions work.<br>
                          &gt;As a ccTLD Manager with 24 years
                          uninterrupted service I tend to<br>
                          &gt;agree that I do not know how the IANA
                          function is operated by the<br>
                          &gt;current Function Manager (ICANN), though I
                          do have a really good<br>
                          &gt;idea how it SHOULD be operated.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;Therefor I have requested that Mr Chehade
                          explain to us how this<br>
                          &gt;works.  I can not find any feedback on
                          this issue.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;Unless these issues are addressed to my
                          satisfaction (and I am not<br>
                          &gt;saying that they must be resolved
                          necessarily to my satisfaction) I<br>
                          &gt;shall, as a ccNSO appointed member, be
                          formally objecting to any<br>
                          &gt;output of the CCWG-Accountability.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
                          &gt;I am circulating this to the usual ccTLD
                          lists as well.<br>
                          &gt;<br>
