<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">There are several aspects of the IETF policy I don't agree with (such as possible banning of offenders) and I believe that the policy itself would be illegal
for a California public benefit corporation to adopt. Without dragging folks into a tedious legal analysis, I would note that the Declaration of Rights of the California Constitution has been held to apply to private firms if expressed in the affirmative
(such as article 1, section 2, which refers to free speech; the affirmative expression of California speech rights differentiating it from the negative expression of such rights in the first amendment of the US Constitution) (<em><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Prunegard
Shopping </span></em><i>Center </i>being the defining case extending such rights to private firms and facilities) and combined with California's expansive long arm statute (CA Civ Pro §410.10) could invalidate such a policy. While I did not oppose including
the IETF policy and process when our proposed submission included multiple reference markers, including one developed internally, I am uncomfortable issuing a statement referencing only one policy because that could be perceived as a direct endorsement of
Council. That the policy referenced may be illegal is also be a problem.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Hi everybody,</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">I must admit I'm not very happy with the way this conversation has gone. To be clear, I'm not too pulsed by the policy disagreements. I am a bit perturbed,
though, at the timing of many of the contributions. We're better than this.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Let me first extend my thanks and appreciation to Jennifer for her leadership and hard work on this effort. In the four plus years I have been involved with
ICANN I can not recall ever having worked with someone whose passion, knowledge, competence and expertise I have come to so admire. I am honoured and humbled to serve on the same Council as she.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">I would also like to thank James, for his tireless effort to try to bring this matter to a conclusion.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The small group proposal was posted to the Council list on 6 April. Stephanie, to her credit, was the only Councillor to indicate widespread dissatisfaction
with the small group proposal between the time it was posted and our call on the 14th: the expected date of agreement and dispatch. I appreciate the preambles of many of those who weighed in late on the matter acknowledging the work of the small group who
put together the initial proposal, but I'm not a big fan of those who weigh in last minute to criticise work they themselves chose not to participate in or object to in a timely manner. This matter obviously needed conversation but because of the lateness
of most of the objections we didn't have time for that. We need to do better in the future and I'm sure we will.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">There is a proposed GNSO public comment on the FY17 budget and operating plan a few of us have worked on that is still out for work. There is a hard deadline
of 30 April for submission. I believe we've set a deadline a few days earlier for objections, contributions and comments. It's still a skeleton paper and could use more meat. Contributions are not only welcome but are needed. I only ask you, my colleagues,
to do your best to please voice any objections sooner rather than later. It's not good for the quality of discussion nor respectful to those of us who put together the initial documents to jump in with wholesale objections at deadline. Thank you for your consideration.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">As for the matter at hand:</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">1. There was never any attempt to create or signify GNSO policy in the initial proposal. Rather we were trying to include "reference markers" to possible policies.
One was created by the small team, improved upon with suggestions by others. There were references to other external policies that we thought staff and board might want to consider. I have disagreements, some substantial, with each of the reference markers
save the one we created. I did not object to their inclusion in the letter because I recognised what they were: markers, not concrete proposals.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">2. I support the approach of the Business Constituency in a more specific form. My preference would be for the Board to ask ICANN Legal to draft a conference
harassment policy, post the proposed policy for public comment and then have the Board act accordingly. I have complete confidence John Jeffrey and his team could and would produce a substantive policy proposal that we all could and would support.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">3. I do not support the creation of a CCWG in this matter. Please see point 2 for my procedural preference.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">4. I commend Amr for a very creative and substantive approach to the overall culture where certain forms of harassment have IMHO been made somewhat acceptable.
Although I would prefer that ICANN legal develop an initial conference policy, I do believe Amr has several ideas that could in compliment really help us attack this problem.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">5. I still prefer the initial proposal of the small team, mark 2 (as improved upon by James and staff), to any proposal that has since been produced. I recognise
that there have been a number of objections, unwarranted in my view, to that approach and that we are unlikely at this time to achieve momentum in that direction. On the other hand, I should note that I find Paul's most recent proposal, while appreciating
his effort, to be a bit too generic and lacking enough substance for me to be able to support </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">As a compromise I am willing to accept and propose we go forward with James suggestion earlier today to proceed with the letter, minus the key points. I note
that this approach seemed to meet with the approval of several Councillors (Jennifer, Keith, Amr, Marilia) and I add my support to theirs. It's time to get this letter out.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

this discussions and I publicly apologise to the colleagues that carried the piano - particularly Jennifer and Ed. I think Jennifer put forward an excellent proposal and I personally disagree with the points that were made that ended watering it to the text
that we have in front of us. What we are discussing is relevant to GNSO constituencies and I believe we are in no way out of our remit here. However, I do understand my comment is not timely. Let's just not weaken the message any further. And we absolutely
need a separate policy on harassment. </span><u></u><u></u></p>

This is a reasonable and perhaps minimalist response, but does it strip<br>

<br>
Also, with the removal of the middle section, I recommend some minor edits<br>

Dear Akram <br>
<br>
On behalf of the GNSO Council, we would like to thank you for your recent<br>
blog post (³Conduct at ICANN Meetings²) . Members of the Council, and all<br>
of the GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies, share the goal of<br>
ensuring that all members of the community can participate in and<br>
contribute to ICANN, in an environment where harassment and discrimination<br>
are not tolerated.<br>
<br>
Without passing judgment on any specific incident, we are encouraged by<br>
the commitment from Staff and the Board to engage the community on this<br>
subject in a manner which results in a suitable policy designed to ensure<br>
the our mutual goal. We look forward to participating the process to<br>
develop such a policy, and expect that members of the GNSO community will<br>
also be engaged in this effort within their own Stakeholder Groups and<br>
Constituencies. Some have already undertaken work in their own groups (by<br>
way of example the ³Statement from NUCU Executive Committee² which can be<br>
found here [link]). We urge the Board and Staff to consider these<br>
materials in any community undertaking to develop new policy addressing<br>
this issue.<br>
<br>
Please keep us informed of your work and how we may help.<br>
<br>
Thank you<br>

>> diversity of ICANN meeting attendees may lead to situations where<br>
>> remarks that are not intended to offend may nonetheless do so.<br>
>> · A need to strictly define, and limit, the ³prompt,<br>

>> Dear Akram <br>
>><br>
>> On behalf of the GNSO Council, we would like to thank your for your<br>
>> recent blog post (³Conduct at ICANN Meetings²). Members of the<br>
>> Council, and all of the GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies,<br>
>> share the goal of ensuring that all members of the community can<br>
>> participate in and contribute to ICANN, in an environment where<br>
>> harassment and discrimination are not tolerated.<br>
>><br>
>> Without passing judgment on any specific incident, we are encouraged<br>
>> by the commitment from Staff and the Board to engage the community on<br>
>> this subject.<br>
>> In support of this, volunteers on the Council have prepared a draft<br>
>> (³ICANN Conference Harassment Policy², attached). Several questions<br>
>> remain open, however, including:<br>
>><br>
>> ? Whether this Policy would enhance, or be distinct from, the<br>
>> existing Expected Standards of Behavior policy ? Whether<br>
>> complaints would be reported to ICANN Staff, or the Office of the<br>
>> Ombudsman, or some other entity or group ? How the policy will<br>
>> be enforced, and ? Other topics and questions that will arise<br>
>> from this work.<br>
>><br>
>> We expect that members of the GNSO community will be engaged in this<br>
>> effort, and note that some have already undertaken work in their own<br>
>> groups (³Statement from NUCU Executive Committee²). We urge this<br>
>> group to consider these materials in any community undertaking to<br>
>> develop new policy addressing this issue.<br>
