It is clear that GAC members must take something home for their ministers, so we need to give some serious thought to what those things might be. Two ideas that come to mind are (1) recommend that all community based applications be allowed to apply simultaneously for their IDN equivalents or a small fee per string, which would lead to each nation being able to use non-English / non-ASCII scripts (and therein a "win"); and (2) suggest that a way to get past the impass of too many "2"s in the scorecard would be to go forward with a limited round to start so that we can all see if the current AGB (as suggested by the Board) is functional or needs the modifications currently revcommended by the GAC. In any case, according to PDT, we cannot leave SFO without resolution. IMHO, that must be the message we share with all we meet in the meeting rooms and halls....<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>Kind regards,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>RA<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; ">________________________________________<br>Ron Andruff<br>RNA Partners, Inc.<br><a href="mailto:randruff@rnapartners.com">randruff@rnapartners.com</a><br><a href="http://www.rnapartners.com">www.rnapartners.com</a></div><hr><div><b>From:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>Marilyn Cade <<a href="mailto:marilynscade@hotmail.com">marilynscade@hotmail.com</a>></div><div><b>Sender:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b><a href="mailto:owner-bc-gnso@icann.org">owner-bc-gnso@icann.org</a></div><div><b>Date:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>Sun, 13 Mar 2011 16:22:51 -0400</div><div><b>To:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>bc - GNSO list<<a href="mailto:bc-gnso@icann.org">bc-gnso@icann.org</a>></div><div><b>Subject:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>[bc-gnso] urgent update to all BC members -- regarding BC statement regarding Board-GAC Scorecard issues</div><div><br></div>During a meeting with Kurt Pritz, V.President, ICANN with the GNSO and the GNSO Council, he announced that there is agreement to have short statements from the Chairs of the SOs/ACs and SGs at the beginning of the session on Monday that reviews the Board and GAC Scorecard Document [showing 1a, 1b, and 2]. <div><br></div><div>I am going to convene a process to draft a statement from the BC [we don't have a CSG chair/and at this point, the position I have given to the chairs within the CSG is that we will each make a statement for our Constituency.
