<BODY style="MARGIN: 4px 4px 1px; FONT: 10pt Tahoma" lang=EN-US link=blue vLink=purple>
<DIV>Thanks for the comments, Chuck and Tim. Hopefully the following clarification will help matters:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(1) I actually borrowed (er, copied :) the first resolve clause from Chuck's original motion, as I agree it's important to wrap up the improvements process and we'll need clear and specific indicators of what remains due and when in order to do so. If it would have been more appropriate to propose my amendment as an amendment to Chuck's rather than Wendy's motion, I can perhaps do that (if it's within the rules to do so).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(2) The intent was NOT to add an extra layer; rather, it was to reduce duplication and delay by having the Council take over from where the OSC and PPSC are now. My reasons for this include (i) the need to wrap things up as mentioned already; (ii) the risk of further delay if we keep referring things back to the OSC/PPSC to then pass on to individual work teams, for funneling back to us; (iii) the resulting inefficiencies once the Council discovers certain procedures or recommendations to be unworkable, thus resulting in yet another go-around; and (iv) the need for the Council to step in and exercise a true managerial function, which includes substantive review.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(3) On that last point, there had been consensus around creating a Standing Committee that would NOT be the equivalent of the OSC and/or PPSC. The Standing Committee would (i) assist the Council in its review work; (ii) review at the Council's request existing processes (as it would not be appropriate for those who drafted the procedures to be reviewing themselves!); and (iii) if necessary and/or requested by the Council, convene new drafting/work teams should subsequent drafting or other work be necessary in the fullness of time.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As to the question of whether the Council will be less busy and/or pay more critical attention now than perhaps some of us did before, I hope so. The incidents we have already raised must mean we need to, and I believe my amendments will clarify for the community that this is indeed what we are prepared to do.</DIV>
<DIV><BR>Thanks,<BR>Mary <BR><BR></DIV>

<DIV class=WordSection1>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">I want to point out that the motion I made to extend the PPSC and OSC charters was very similar to the first resolve of Mary’s proposed amendment with regard to timing. It also only extended the charters to the San Francisco meeting and that was done consciously by me because I also believe that we need to wrap up the GNSO improvements work quickly. And I personally support directing “</SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">each steering committee and applicable work team chair to identify for the Council any remaining targets and benchmarks for their respective work by no later than 19 January 2011</SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">”.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Recognizing that the RySG has not discussed this yet, I have concerns about the second resolve because I like Tim believe it will result in duplication of effort and inefficiency. We have three layers now; we would have four then. Finally, asking the Council to be more directly involved seems to me something that should already be the case. The Council approved the procedures that we are now so concerned about. The excuse is that we were all too busy. Is that going to change in the next few months?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

Fundamentally, I believe it's time, and necessary, for the Council now to assume direct responsibility for reviewing the deliverables from the PPSC and OSC as well as the respective work teams. In this, the Council should be assisted by the Standing Committee that was supposed to have been formed some time ago. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Of course, this would not preclude either the Council or the Standing Committee from consulting the teams and committees that drafted and reviewed the original language and processes; it's just that - with the amount of projects we are facing and the concerns already expressed over both the Council's role and the workability of the new GNSO rules and procedures, the seemingly-endless rounds of discussion, interpretation, delegation, referral and redrafting has to stop somewhere and that should be the Council.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
