    Hi,<br>
    <br>
    Further, there may be real benefit in defining the ICANN Community
    as a legal entity in that it would give SOAC  a separate visibility
    as the entity that ICANN corporate is accountable to.<br>
    <br>
    The more I think about it, the appealing it seems.<br>
    <br>
    <br>
    From the ATRT perspective, we would need to explore whether it would
    require any modification to the AOC- bylaw import.  Partly this
    would depend on what sort of internal structure the ICANN SOAC
    entity adopted and what powers it held.<br>

      <br>
      In some way that might lessen the complexity of making most SOAC
      an individual legal entity.  <br>
      <br>
      How would it work?  Would we continue to appoint Directors just as
      we do now?<br>
      <br>
      Or would there need to be some sort of Members Council that took
      actions, working simliarly to the the executive board or community
      council idea?<br>
      <br>
      thanks<br>
