The results are fairly obvious.<br>
<br>
a) there is not a true consensus; we are divided but numerically a preponderance supports the change<br>
b) the board, GAC and ALAC want the threshold for board removal to be higher when GAC advice is involved.<br>
c) civil society / noncommercial almost unanimously do not support the board/GAC/ALAC position<br>

e) others (e.g. ccTLDs) are divided<br>
