To be accurate, under current Bylaws, ACs and the ASO are generally free
to make their own rules (there are some exceptions). The ccNSO and GNSO
rules are generally subject to Board approval/rejection and the critical
parts of their rules, how PDPs are conducted, are in fact Bylaws that
clearly need Board explicit approval.<br><br>
