      AS for the strategy....I think it would be a good idea to discuss
      it with Avri among others who have been in the thick of it trying
      to get the language into the bylaws.  The CCWG gets quite heated
      and this is very controversial and close to some government
      hearts, not to mention industry hearts.  I would suggest a
      somewhat cautious approach, but perhaps I just find the CCWG
      multiple conversations and calls overwhelming.  I would suggest
      you have a listen to some of them before you wade in Niels. <br>
      cheers Stephanie<br>
      PS I will see if I can find and forward the email that has the
      list of all who have joined the group.  <br>

                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; Dear Colleagues,<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; As announced during our last call, the co-Chairs
                  have reviewed<br>
                  &gt; where we are on this issue. Our group is tasked
                  to work on the<br>
                  &gt; basis of consensus, and we have focused on
                  assessing where this<br>
                  &gt; condition was met .<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; It is our conclusion that : 1) our group has
                  achieved consensus on<br>
                  &gt; including a human rights related Commitment in
                  Icann's Bylaws. 2)<br>
                  &gt; no particular wording currently proposed achieved
                  consensus.<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; As a consequence, we propose to include into the
                  public comment 2<br>
                  &gt; report (in the Mission &amp; Core value section,
                  a draft is included<br>
                </span>&gt; below) - this assessment and a firm
                commitment to add a human<br>
                &gt; rights related Commitment into Icann's Bylaws, -
                the underlying<br>
                &gt; requirements expressed during the debate, - the
                concrete language<br>
                <span class="">&gt; proposals that were considered by
                  our group so far, as examples<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; Finally, given the strong momentum on the issue,
                  both during the<br>
                  &gt; meeting and on list before and after, and taking
                  into account the<br>
                  &gt; high level of complexity involved, we suggest to
                  kick off ASAP a<br>
                  &gt; subgroup to further refine the requirements and
                  assess potential<br>
                  &gt; options based on further studies of the current
                  situation and<br>
                  &gt; "agreed-on" language.<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; We thank you all for your understanding and
                  commitment on this<br>
                  &gt; topic, as well as the extensive discussions both
                  on list and during<br>
                  &gt; the calls about this.<br>

                  &gt; As a reminder, Minority statements filed until
                  Saturday 12.00 UTC<br>

                  &gt; Elaborating an Icann Commitment to Human Rights<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; The CCWG-Accountability extensively discussed the
                  opportunity to<br>
                  &gt; include into Icann Bylaws a Comittment related to
                  Human Rights. The<br>
                  &gt; group commissioned a legal analysis of whether
                  the termination of<br>
                  &gt; the IANA contract would induce changes into
                  Icann's obligations<br>
                  &gt; with regards to Human Rights (LINK). While no
                  significant issue was<br>
                  &gt; found to be directly linked to the termination of
                  the IANA<br>
                  &gt; contract, the group acknowledged the recurring
                  debates around the<br>
                  &gt; nature of Icann's accountability towards the
                  respect of fundamental<br>
                  &gt; human rights.<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; These discussions identified the following,
                  non-exhaustive, list<br>
                </span>&gt; of accountability-related requirements : -
                the NTIA criteria to<br>
                <span class="">&gt; maintain the openness of the
                  Internet, including free expression<br>
                </span>&gt; and the free flow of information - the need
                to avoid extending<br>
                &gt; Icann's mission into content regulation - the
                importance of<br>
                <span class="">&gt; assessing the impact of Icann
                  policies on Human righ ts<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; Examples of language that could serve as a
                  Commitment were as<br>
                </span>&gt; follows : - Within its mission and in its
                operations, ICANN will be<br>
                <span class="">&gt; committed to respect the fundamental
                  human rights of the exercise<br>
                </span>&gt; of free expression and the free flow of
                information. - Within its<br>
                <span class="">&gt; mission and in it operations, ICANN
                  will be committed to respect<br>
                  &gt; internationally recognized fundamental human
                  rights.<br>
                  &gt;<br>
                  &gt; The group has achieved consensus on including a
                  human rights<br>
                  &gt; related Commitment in Icann's Bylaws. However no
                  particular wording<br>
                  &gt; currently proposed achieved consensus.
                  Reiterating its commitment<br>
                  &gt; to elaborate concrete proposals as part of its
                  mandate,  the<br>
                  &gt; CCWG-Accountability is calling for comments on
                  this approach and<br>
                  &gt; the underlying requirements.<br>
