5.2 Key points made in the 15 July Council meeting (from meeting minutes):<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=a1><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><br>
• “. . . not a useful exercise, not much was learnt, should not
proceed further with the prioritization exercise.”<br>
• “. . . spending more time on the exercise will not accomplish
useful results.”<br>
• “It was a difficult exercise, policy matters were not prioritized
and the core issue, management of the workload, still has not been
resolved.”<br>
• “The exercise was intended as a first step and not intended to
solve the workload management; other steps are needed. The exercise contributed
an important degree of common awareness and dissent to the group.”<br>
• “The prioritization process could be improved with further input
from the Councilors and stakeholder groups.”<br>
• “The exercise is important and informative from a staff
perspective and the Council needs to look at a two-step process going forward:
step one - form a small team to improve the process used to date drawing on
input received; step two - develop a process to manage the workload with input
from staff of the resources being used to support each of the working groups,
which will reflect both staff and community efforts.”<br>
• “Support was expressed for continuing the prioritization work,
but linking it to the overall ICANN Staff and Community workload and to the
Budget process.”<br>
• “The question of available resources should be looked at in
context. The Vertical Integration working group as an example of one that would
not normally have commenced with all the work before Council, yet it did and
the community resources were available.”<br>
• “Some believe that work should be prioritized but the methodology
chosen is not the most appropriate or efficient.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=a1><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>9. Except
as otherwise specified in these Bylaws, Annex A hereto, or the GNSO Operating
Procedures, the default threshold to pass a GNSO Council motion or other voting
action requires a simple majority vote of each House. The voting thresholds
described below shall apply to the following GNSO actions:<br>
1. Create an Issues Report: requires an affirmative vote of more than 25% vote
of each House or majority of one House;<br>
2. Initiate a Policy Development Process (“PDP”) Within Scope (as
described in Annex A): requires an affirmative vote of more than 33% of each
House or more than 66% of one House;<br>
3. Initiate a PDP Not Within Scope: requires an affirmative vote of more than
75% of one House and a majority of the other House (“GNSO
Supermajority”);<br>
4. Approve a PDP Recommendation Without a GNSO Supermajority: requires an
affirmative vote of a majority of each House and further requires that one GNSO
Council member representative of at least 3 of the 4 Stakeholder Groups
supports the Recommendation;<br>
5. Approve a PDP Recommendation With a GNSO Supermajority: requires an
affirmative vote of a GNSO Supermajority; and<br>
6. Approve a PDP Recommendation Imposing New Obligations on Certain Contracting
Parties: where an ICANN contract provision specifies that “a two-thirds
vote of the council” demonstrates the presence of a consensus, the GNSO
Supermajority vote threshold will have to be met or exceeded with respect to
any contracting party affected by such contract provision.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
