Dear Larisa,<br>
<br>
I am sorry but I will not prioritise any of these recommendations.
This is purely an ICANN thing to prioritise things which are all
important, for the sole purpose of demoting the importance of some
of the recommendations because let's face it, that's exactly what we
are doing.<br>
There are 12 recommendations; ICANN is purporting to be a world
class organisation... and it needs to have a committee help it
throttle the rate at which these recommendations are implemented?<br>
For this reason, and I apologise for this, I shall not fill the
doodle poll. <br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Olivier<div><div><br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Dear ATRT2 Members,</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>As discussed on the ATRT2
call on 17 December, please indicate which recommendations
you would consider to be “priority” recommendations by
voting in the Doodle Poll <u><span style="color:blue"><a href="http://doodle.com/yxidhmrupcbfmb4u" target="_blank">http://doodle.com/yxidhmrupcbfmb4u</a>.
</span><b>This Doodle Poll will close by 23:59 UTC on 18
December.</b></u> Depending on the results of this
Poll, further discussion and consideration will be given,
via email, to the possibility of including prioritization
guidance in the Final Report.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Here is a recap of the
recommendations for ease of reference:</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>#1 The Board should
develop objective measures for determining the quality of
ICANN Board members and the success of Board improvement
efforts, and analyze those findings over time.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#2 The Board should
develop metrics to measure the effectiveness of the Board’s
functioning and improvement efforts, and publish the
materials used for training to gauge levels of improvement.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#3 The Board should
conduct qualitative/quantitative studies to determine how
the qualifications of Board candidate pools change over time
, and regularly assess Director’s compensation levels
against prevailing standards.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#4 The Board should
continue supporting cross-community engagement aimed at
developing an understanding of the distinction between
policy development and policy implementation. Develop
complementary mechanisms whereby the Supporting
Organizations and Advisory Committees (SO/AC) can consult
with the Board on matters, including, but not limited to
policy, implementation and administrative matters, on which
the Board makes decisions.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#5 The Board should
review redaction standards for Board documents, Document
Information Disclosure Policy (DIDP) and any other ICANN
documents to create a single published redaction policy.
Institute a process to regularly evaluate redacted material
to determine if redactions are still required and if not,
ensure that redactions are removed. </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>#6 GAC-related
recommendation</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#7 The Board should
explore mechanisms to improve public comment through
adjusted time allotments, forward planning regarding the
number of consultations given anticipated growth in
participation, and new tools that facilitate participation.
The Board also should establish a process under the Public
Comment Process where those who commented or replied during
the Public Comment and/or Reply Comment period(s) can
request changes to the synthesis reports in cases where they
believe the Staff incorrectly summarized their comment(s). </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#8 To support public
participation, the Board should review capacity of the
language services department versus the Community need for
the service using Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and make
relevant adjustments such as improving translation quality
and timeliness and interpretation quality. ICANN should
implement continuous improvement of translation and
interpretation services including benchmarking of procedures
used by international organizations such as the United
Nations.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#9 Consideration of
decision-making inputs and appeals processes</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#10 The Board should
improve the effectiveness of cross-community deliberations</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#11 Effectiveness of the
Review Process</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in"><span>#12 Financial
Accountability and Transparency</span><u></u><u></u></p>
