Thanks for circulating this Grace.<br>
<br>
I would certainly support - <u>and believe it should be a priority
for Dublin</u> - having a very clear understanding (in chart form
or other) of the enforcement mechanisms for each of the powers under
the SMM, Designator and MEM models as noted in the second bullet in
the Action for lawyers section below. Hopefully much of this has
analysis been done and won't take to much additional work. <br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>

<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;">Kavouss
added an edit (underlined here):</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;">1.
Power to block a proposed Operating Plan/Strat Plan/Budget
with limitation on rejection/ Veto ( maximum 3 times )</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;">2.
Power to approve changes to Fundamental Bylaws and Articles of
Incorporation.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;">3.
Power to block changes to standard Blaws.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;">4.
Power to appoint and remove individual board Directors
possibly with the approval of the entire community </p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;">5.
Power to recall the entire board of Directors</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;">6.
Mechanism for binding IRP where a panel decision is
enforceable in any court recognizing international arbitration
results — even if ICCANNs Board refused to participate in the
binding arbitration. (assuming CCWG lawyers verify this
works without activating a Membership model)</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;"><span
style="text-decoration: underline">All decision taken on the
above would require consensus , without more than two Advice
against that ( non-voting of ACs) </span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Helvetica;">I
think we are close enough to get consensus around the above
powers before we leave Dublin. And based on what we’ve
heard recently, the board will support the powers described
above.</p>

in AC. The chart shows the 6 Powers and their enforcement
in Board's MEM (within Bylaws), Designator, Sole Member.
For first pass, only do each of the 3 as described. (If
there is extra time, the lawyers can study options for
personhood for SO/ACs in the models). </span></li>
