For example, over 95% of the ICANN budget is funded by gTLD registrants, registrars and registries, shouldn't the GNSO have some greater weight in a decision to override the budget when such a decision could impact their fees directly? In decisions impacting gTLD registries, shouldn't the gTLD registries have at least the same voting weight as the ccTLD registries and not 1/4th the weight? Similarly, shouldn't the CCNSO have greater weight in a decision to amend Article IX of the ICANN Bylaws, which is limited to just how the CCNSO operates? </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Jon</div><div class=""><div apple-content-edited="true" class=""><br class=""></div><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Nov 1, 2015, at 11:36 PM, Greg Shatan <<a href="mailto:gregshatanipc@gmail.com" class="">gregshatanipc@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">Seun, </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><br class=""></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">I'm just reflecting reality.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><br class=""></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">You are comparing applies and oranges.

</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">
<div dir="ltr" class="">Hi all
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Our call is on Friday from 18h UTC, and may last up to two hours.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The proposed agenda items are as follows. <u style="font-weight:bold" class="">PLEASE READ THIS AGENDA CAREFULLY</u> as it sets out how I propose we run the meeting and the questions I propose we aim to answer.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><b class="">1. Review of Agenda</b></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><b class="">2. Decision-making in the Community Mechanism</b></div>
<div class=""><i class="">This agenda item should look at decision-making, and seeing where the WP sits with key issues raised in the "Dublin Approach".</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">To prepare for this item I suggest reading the following papers:</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">- Community Decision-Making: The Dublin Approach Working Paper</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">- Public Comment Analysis - Voting in the community mechanism</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">If you have time, also have a look at the staff analysis of public comments - the "Model" and "Voting-Forum" tabs in particular.</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">Papers attached or linked below. I have not updated the Dublin Approach paper, but kept the very valuable comments, and moved Robin's added issues into separate rows in the Issues Table.</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><b class="">My suggestion is that we deal with the following specific questions</b>, as they are the key changes in the model compared with what we presented in the Second Draft Proposal. We should for each question identify whether we have a consensus on them
or whether we don't -- so we can advise the full CCWG of WP1's views.</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">a) Do we support the decision-making model (by consensus) replacing the voting approach?</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">b) Do we support only one view being expressed by each SO or AC?</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">c) Do we support an equal say for each participating SO or AC?</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">We also need to address the following:</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">d) In our Third Draft Proposal, which SOs and ACs do we propose should be participating? that is, do we respect the SSAC's desire not to, and do we take a view re RSSAC?</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class="">e) Based on our answer to d), do we need to make any changes to the numbers in the decision-making framework?</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">
</i></div>
<div class=""><i class=""> </i></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><b class="">3. Other Work Required by WP1</b></div>
<div class=""><i class="">I do not have a current list of work we need to do in the next fortnight but believe this will be clearer following next week's CCWG. I welcome staff or co-chairs' input on this at this point of the WP1 agenda, and of course suggestions from WP1 participants.</i></div>

<div class="">I attach PDFs of the Dublin Approach paper and of the Public Comment report section on voting.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The Dublin paper Google Doc is at: <<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zHZl_NvQ1WChatX8NT2Q1rQi4zQZgbrbAxrQSsH3tZQ/edit" target="_blank" class="">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zHZl_NvQ1WChatX8NT2Q1rQi4zQZgbrbAxrQSsH3tZQ/edit</a>></div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">The full WP1 Public Comment is at: <<a href="https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/56142506/2015-10-12-CCWG-WP1-SecondPC-FullAnalysis.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1444644438000&api=v2" target="_blank" class="">https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/56142506/2015-10-12-CCWG-WP1-SecondPC-FullAnalysis.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1444644438000&api=v2</a>></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">You may also find the staff analysis of Public Comments useful, which deals with voting specifically in a couple of the tabs (Model and Voting-Forum): <<a href="https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/54693137/PC2%20tool%20-%2024%20SeptBTv2.xlsx?version=1&modificationDate=1443208173000&api=v2" target="_blank" class="">https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/54693137/PC2%20tool%20-%2024%20SeptBTv2.xlsx?version=1&modificationDate=1443208173000&api=v2</a>></div>
