If "we" refers to some other group (such as those who agree with the statement) then maybe it is accurate.

Perhaps the Board chair is articulating a minority viewpoint? Afterall, the<br>
Board will have to vote on the matter of sending/not sending the output of<br>
the CCWG on to NTIA.<br>

With respect Bruce, I share Anne's view that this is not accurate. The<br>
Board chair has stated unequivocally that the Board will not submit a<br>
Membership based proposal. That is contrary to the statement that the Board<br>
will submit any proposal it receives from the CCWG "as is." That is<br>
categorically ruling out one type of "as is" proposal.<br>
<br>
If you are seriously telling me that even after all this back and forth the<br>
Board actually would submit a "Membership only" based proposal to the NTIA<br>
then I would respectfully say that the Board has done a very poor job of<br>
communicating.<br>
<br>
So ... answer this question please as directly as you are willing: If,<br>
today, the CCWG having considered but declined to accept the Board's input<br>
were to submit a proposal based upon a Membership organization would the<br>
Board transmit it to the NTIA as the ICANN proposal?<br>

Hello Paul,<br>
<br>
Regarding:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-3-2015-02-12-en" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-3-2015-02-12-en</a><br>
<br>
The statement still holds.<br>
<br>
The Board has provided input on a draft document so far, and has stated all<br>
along that it would raise any concerns along the way and not wait for a<br>
final proposal to raise any concerns.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Bruce Tonkin<br>
