[CWG-Stewardship] The PTI board

This makeup seems fine to me with one condition: each of the directors need to have the right skill set to match the PTI functions, i.e., a strong understanding of the IANA services and their value to the community.

Makes sense to me.

Excellent suggestions.

Hi MM,

I mostly support that approach, but I'd propose the following modifications. Instead of one naming community representative, I'd suggest one from the GNSO and one from ccNSO.  In addition, I'd suggest adding the Exec Dir of the PTI to the board. In total, a lightweight and small five person board.

Regarding the composition of the board, the Summary of Legal Structure says only: "The PTI board could be an ICANN-designated board" and that we should "avoid the need to replicate the complexity of the multistakeholder ICANN board." I agree with the latter concern, but we will need to flesh out more detail regarding the composition of the PTI board.

I have missed most recent calls, so perhaps this has been discussed already, but if it has, it didn't appear in the Sidley Austin draft.

I think a simple and easily implementable solution would be to have ICANN-designated members be fixed by rules or bylaws (as opposed to wholly discretionary).
In my view, the PTI board should consist of the following 3 members:

1.       The existing IETF liaison on the ICANN board

2.       Someone designated by the ASO

3.       Someone designated by ICANN's board essentially representing the naming community. One could add to this a recommendation from the CSC if one wanted, I would be amenable to that.

This PTI board would be balanced across the 3 operational communities and thus would be in a good position to provide oversight for the IANA functions.
