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<br>
<br>

efforts, and analyze those findings over time.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

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><o:p></o:p></p>

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><o:p></o:p></p>

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><o:p></o:p></p>

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
