it is difficult to
agree all the items Xinsheng entions before our Brussels meeting.
If we did that, we could only publish the RFP towards the end of June
and we
could only take a decision on whether to launch the management review
or not (which
would need a face to face meeting with at least a couple of
organizations and
the full RT) at the September meeting. By then it would far too
late for the management review to be of any use.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;">Dear all,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;">On the basis of our
discussion in
the conference call, I would like to share my further thoughts on the
RFP with
all of you.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;">I share the views
with some of you
that the RT might need to study a pack of specific issues before the
publication of the RFP, for instance, the candidate selection criteria
and
procedures, budget and financial requirements, implementation process
monitoring and quality control, the output evaluation standards and
procedures,
etc. Otherwise, we have reason to be concerned that if those issues are
not
appropriately handled but to make a rush to give birth to the RFP, the
working
quality of the RT is somewhat compromised and the credibility of the
deliverables will be sort of weakened. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;">Second, the aim of
the RT from my
perspective is to ensure the accountability and transparency of ICANN
processes
and procedures. While the term, quality of decision-making, seems to me
is a
rather vague one. It looks that no clear standards and baseline being
set for
judging whether the quality is good or bad regarding decision-making. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;">Lastly, as we all
agree, the review
process conducted referring to the AOC 9.1 (a…e) is the way we follow.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
