Hi Olof,
Thanks for these notes. There were 2 points in the draft that I had
concerns with.
1. Under the "Country, territory and place names" section it says:
"It is unclear whether GAC views should trump other views ..."
I don't remember hearing anyone at the meeting say GAC views should
trump the views of other stake-holders. I don't think anyone
suggested that ICANN should no longer be led by the private sector
and that anyone stakeholder should be able to trump other stake-
holders. Who suggested this at the LA mtg?
2. Also under the "Country, territory and place names" section, a
point that I made in LA is missing from these notes. I stated that
it was inappropriate to use the Paris Convention to justify not
permitting tlds with country names in them since the Paris Convention
regulates commercial speech ONLY - not ALL speech. So I think this
point, which was made in the LA mtg, should be included in the
notes. Thanks.
Best,
Robin
