    Hi,<br>
    <br>
    Ok, at this point I no longer think I am confused.  Thanks for the
    elucidations.<br>
    <br>
    My current impression is that we have not changed anything with
    respect to AOC type review recommendations,  They will essentially
    remain the way it they are now.  The improvement is that the same
    reconsideration and IRP  measures will have now,  will be improved. 
    And of course there is the new non-confidence measure at the end of
    the road.<br>
    <br>
    While strengthening the redress measures we are not doing anything
    specific to strengthen the uptake of AOC type review
    recommendations.  If that is what we have decided, I am ok with it,
    as long as we do not claim that we have added anything to the
    approval of reports more than we have added to anything else.  We
    probably should remove the line that says<br>
    <blockquote type="cite">
      <blockquote style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt">
        <p class="MsoNormal">Require the ICANN board to approve and
          implement review team recommendations, including<br>
          recommendations from previous reviews.</p>
      </blockquote>
    </blockquote>
    Since that is not the case as far as I can tell.   What will
    continue to happen is that the review teams will submit the report,
    there will be a public comment period, and then the Board will
    decide what it wants to do with the recommendations.  And if the
    community does not like it, they can, assuming they have standing,
    can request reconsideration, CEP and IRP.  <br>

                    Apologies, but I think I remain confused.  <br>
                    <br>
                    I understand that we still have the ultimate
                    accountability function.<br>
                    Still don't know if there is any other power.<br>
                    <br>
                    First, as far as I remember, we did not get the
                    Power to force a decision against complete inaction.<br>
                    <br>
                    Also I do not believe that it would be the case that
                    there was complete inaction.  I am sure that the
                    Board would review the various recommendations of
                    the AOC type review teams.  Most reviews contain
                    many recommendations, and the Board could accept

                          We discussed this as a putting a greater
