<div>Just to be clear, the Board has said it is willing to permit 3 SO/AC threshold where an IRP has determined the board has violated the bylaws, so I don't think we need to contemplate a threshold of 4 in all cases.<br>

<div>Dear All,</div>
<div>The simplest and most straight forward was to resolve the issue; address/ meet the Boards Concerns is that in no way and Under any circumstances, the Spill of the Board should be decided by less than 4SO/ AC. That was the golden ruilehat everybody agreed
before this so-called CARVE_OUT being proposed generating considerable disagreements and disputes</div>
<div>Imagine that all we have done to bring ther Board on CCWG SIDE would be compromised if the Bioard tables a SERIOUS CONCERNS /disagreement on reduction on the Number os SO/AC from 4 to 3 ,no matter Under what circumnstances.
</div>
<div>Retention 4 SO(AC for Spill over of the Board may decrease the concerns of Carve-out to a greater extent</div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Dear all, <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">As you are aware, we intended to publish our Final Report today (19 February 2016) for Chartering Organization consideration. We are ready to do so, except for one issue where we would like to consider options as a full
group. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There is, still, ongoing discussion on the issue of thresholds for Board removal in Recommendation #2, which raised concerns in our report after we came to a compromise on Board consideration of GAC Advice (Recommendation #11). Since then,
we have tried to propose compromise text that would be acceptable by different groups (c.f. the 12 February and 17 February drafts, posted at
<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_x_iw2AAw&d=CwMFaQ&c=MOptNlVtIETeDALC_lULrw&r=62cJFOifzm6X_GRlaq8Mo8TjDmrxdYahOP8WDDkMr4k&m=Epp3ZzSbIDVtPKSNV98QTXHvQR5cMHUEHtiv0Cq9gUA&s=xTuZH5Y-zSmKZ1tJPIPpU4FZSwtB6H9MKXdHah9G1b4&e=" target="_blank">
https://community.icann.org/x/iw2AAw</a>). </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We received comments on this issue, and in some cases, minority statements, from members and participants in the ALAC, GAC, GNSO, and the Board. Earlier today, ICANN Chairman, Steve Crocker, posted a note, apparently
on behalf of the Icann Board, outlining Board concerns with the latest attempt at compromise text proposed on 17 February:
<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__mm.icann.org_pipermail_accountability-2Dcross-2Dcommunity_2016-2DFebruary_011056.html&d=CwMFaQ&c=MOptNlVtIETeDALC_lULrw&r=62cJFOifzm6X_GRlaq8Mo8TjDmrxdYahOP8WDDkMr4k&m=Epp3ZzSbIDVtPKSNV98QTXHvQR5cMHUEHtiv0Cq9gUA&s=gvrlHVRNZ6D1hrSxwt7jx6NsVHBVrETLcV0v46Ilhaw&e=" target="_blank">
http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/2016-February/011056.html</a>.
<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While these last minute interventions are deeply disappointing for those of us who worked extremely hard, within the group and within their respective communities, to build bridges and promote compromise, our main target and duty remains
to achieve a stable level of consensus, respecting the bottom-up, multistakeholder nature of the process.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is fortunate that the Board provided this input before we published the report, since it enables us to assess the potential consequences of a Board disagreement later in the process.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We believe this issue must be discussed before sending our Final Report to Chartering Organizations. At the very least, we would like the opportunity to discuss a way forward and process as full group on next Tuesday’s CCWG-Accountability
call at 06:00 UTC. There are many options and directions the group can take at this stage, each with different implications and considerations, and these options should be discussed as a group.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Until the Tuesday call, let’s keep open channels of communication on our mailing list and work towards a solution. We will also reach out to the Chartering Organizations to inform them of the change in our schedule.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As co-chairs, we renew our call upon every Member, upon every Participant, our call upon community leaders especially in the ICANN Board, in the GNSO and in the GAC to step away from confronting each other, to engage constructively and
recognize each other’s value to the multistakeholder model. If you believe that the multistakeholder model can deliver, now is the time to act accordingly.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span>Thank you,</p>
