<P><SPAN LANG="en-gb"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">We</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="fr-be"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"></FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-gb"> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">have already done a GNSO Council review and agreed actions as a result - no one I HOPE</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="fr-be"> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">-</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-gb"> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">want</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="fr-be"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">s</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-gb"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> to duplicate that ?</FONT></SPAN>

<P><SPAN LANG="en-gb"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Therefore</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="fr-be"> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">the</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-gb"> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">scope question is surely:</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="en-gb"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Given the purpose of the GNSO,</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="en-gb"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Given the current structures / networks / methodology,</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="en-gb"><B><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">How effective are these structures / networks and methods?</FONT></B></SPAN><B><SPAN LANG="fr-be"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"></FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-gb"> </SPAN></B>
</P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-gb"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Anything more - such as comparison to other models - I suggest is out of scope.</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="en-gb"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">That may be relevant if we conclude</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="fr-be"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> structures / networks / methods are broken or useless, but that should inform a second tier of work ONCE the ineffective bits are identified.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="fr-be"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">If there is a proposal to repeat the evolution and reform process work for the GNSO, I plan a long holiday.</FONT></SPAN>
