[cc-humanrights] [CCWG-ACCT] CCWG-Accountability Call for Volunteers

Thu Mar 31 13:47:11 UTC 2016

Hi Matthew, 

Per the note from the Chairs on the CCWG-Accountability mailing list: 

Implementation and WS2

Once the Bylaws work is complete, we will turn our focus to our inventory of WS2 items. However, this does not prevent anyone in the group from launching into discussions on the mailing list and self-organizing around the topics. 

Regarding mailing lists, we have decided to keep the conversation on the main CCWG list until there is enough interest and discussion to launch a separate sub-group list. This way, we can manage the prioritization and sequencing of our work based on the group’s interest. To help us make a determination on when to launch a separate mailing list, it would be useful for the discussion on the main CCWG mailing list to be around scope, initial research, work plan, etc. It should be noted that the Human Rights effort already has a mailing list (former “WP4” group), and anyone interested in joining that mailing list may contact acct-staff.

Hi Grace 

Thanks for the clarification.

When do you anticipate putting out a call for expressions of interest in specific WS2 work areas,

Best

Matthew

Hi all,

I have a small clarification that we might not have reflected accurately in the announcement below: if you are already part of the CCWG-Accountability (for Work Stream 1), then you do not need to sign up again. This call for volunteers is directed at new folks who have not engaged with the CCWG-Accountability before.

Best,
Grace
