<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The changes proposed by Rafik materially change the motion and I’m unable to accept them as friendly amendments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Following many months of discussion on this topic, including during the CCWG-IG F2F meeting in Johannesburg, it has become clear that the CCWG-IG does not fit the CCWG model that was the formal output of a cross-community working group.
My understanding is that the reps from ccNSO and ALAC have also reached this conclusion.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The purpose of the proposed motion is to:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Signal that the GNSO intends to withdraw as a chartering organization because the CCWG-IG does not fit the formal CCWG model.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Signal that the GNSO respects the work of the CCWG on CCWGs and we support the official model of CCWGs.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Signal that the GNSO respects the work of the CCWG-IG, even while we recognize it does not fit the CCWG model.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Signal that the GNSO intends to work with the other CCWG-IG chartering organizations to identify a replacement model so the work can continue uninterrupted.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Set a reasonable deadline by which the GNSO will withdraw as a chartering organization, with the expectation that the current chartering organizations will work together to develop
a replacement by that date.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The changes proposed by Rafik in #4 do not sync with the purpose of the motion<a name="_MailEndCompose">.<o:p></o:p></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">As discussed during our last GNSO Council call, in response to Avri’s suggestion that we move the target date/deadline from ICANN 60 to ICANN 61, I would accept the date shift as a friendly amendment.
We agreed that the CCWG-IG reps would need to conduct intercessional work and also likely need to meet face-to-face to establish a replacement structure and I think that ICANN 61 is still a reasonable date.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">In my opinion, it is the responsibility of the GNSO Council to set clear expectations and to reinforce that we believe a CCWG must fit the model the community has agreed to. Let me also say that
I don’t believe the change of model or structure needs to be overly dramatic. Just change the name from Cross Community Working Group (which has an explicit definition) to Cross Community Discussion Group or Cross Community Engagement Group. Even if additional
work is required, it seems 7 months ought to be plenty of time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">So, to reiterate, I would be open to accepting the date shift from ICANN 60 to ICANN 61, but the other proposed changes will not support the intent of the motion.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Speaking as a Registrar rep and Seconder of the motion, I would not see these changes as friendly amendments as friendly. I will wait for Keith to respond as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And my concerns go beyond Resolved 4. For example, the proposed amendments would defer/delay a decision from ICANN60 to ICANN61 (Resolved 3 and 5), as well as change the decision to a conditional (Resolved 5, 6 and 7). Of all the proposed
changes, I believe Resolved 7 is the least impactful (but Rafik may see this as dependent upon the other proposed amendments).<o:p></o:p></p>

ignore the various exchanges we’ve had on this topic over the last few months. Personally I could not support the motion with this additional language.<o:p></o:p></p>
