<div>
<div>Heritage Foundation is an NCUC/NCSG member in good standing and has every right to advocate for its position, which is a constituent position of the NCSG consensus.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Its outrageous that a board member would even contemplate taking a position that would logically taken to its conclusion would seek to minimise or reject the views of a constituent of the ICANN community.</div>
<div>I seriously hope you will retract this message George, as its not representative of the high standards you generally display as a veteran of the ICANN board.</div>

Folks,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Brett Schaefer is one of the least personally annoying people on the CCWG. However, this message of his displays openly what is happening.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Brett is arguing below that it is the Heritage Foundation's position that must be noted as part of the record. In other words, Brett openly is a representative of the Heritage Foundation, and NOT the ICANN constituency from where he came. I
don't know which one, but it really doesn't matter.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Many of the CCWG members seem to be representing their personal points of view, or justifying it on the basis of congruence with their own external organization rather than on the basis of positions within their internal ICANN constituency that
they represent.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">To the extent that this is happening, it's just outrageous There is no other word for it.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">On Rec 7 analysis, I’m concerned that our position may be misunderstood. We support including DIDP in an appeals process, but we are very
much against restricting it to the engagement, escalation, and enforcement staircase because that process is dependent on the Empowered Community. DIDP appeals need to be accessible to everyone, not just the SOACs, and appeals should not require SOAC approval
at any threshold. This may require moving DIDP appeals to the request for reconsideration process.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">On Rec 11, the one sentence summary gives the impression that we support Rec 11. We do not and offered specific proposals on how to change
the text to address our concerns, which were not included in the Rec 11 analysis.
