[Acct-Legal] Fwd: [WP1] First Draft: WP1 content for Comment report on community powers & AOC

[Greg Shatan]

Legal Subteam and Counsel:

I am forwarding the draft prepared by "Working Party 1" (WP1) on Community
Empowerment and moving elements of the Affirmation of Commitments into the
ICANN Bylaws. WP1 is meeting tomorrow, April 8 at 21.00 UTC.

WP1 has requested that counsel review and comment on this.  (Clearly, not
all counsel -- some cost-effective subset of counsel.)  This should be
considered a "formal" request for counsel to act.

It would be most helpful to WP1 to have counsel (see parenthetical above)
on tomorrow's call, and prepared to comment.  Failing that (or in addition
to that), written comments would certainly be helpful.  By copy of this
email, I am asking staff to invite counsel to the call, either now or after
counsel has identified the team (or person) for this call.

Note that WP1 is in "sprint" mode and is also meeting Friday (17.00) and
Monday (20.00).  I am not expecting that counsel would be present on those
calls unless it seems necessary based on tomorrow's call.

After this email, I will forward an email with comments on this draft from
Mathieu Weill.

Dear WP1 colleagues,

Attached in PDF and .docx the first draft of the content we have prepared
over the weekend to put in the Public Comment report.

It covers community powers and AOC incorporation.

Of course this is not yet perfect - we've done what we can in the very
tight timeframe to get first draft material together. Thanks to those
drafting team members who were able to set some time aside and add comments
and thoughts to the draft. Not everybody had the chance to due to some
document access issues, so I am sure our next iteration will be even better.

This will be the main subject of our WP1 call on 8 April.

*I would welcome and encourage comment or discussion on the list before the
meeting, as well as at the meeting.* We won't prepare an updated version of
this until after the WP1 call Wednesday, which will take the discussion on
the call into account.

I will send this to the co-chairs and asking Leon to advance discussion /
consideration with the lawyers.


*Staff - *please add this on the Wiki in the appropriate place.


cheers,
Jordan
