Thanks Marika for sharing the slides and the latest draft of the charter.

Best of luck to Jonathan and all present there to share the work so far at the cross-community session.

I am looking forward to know how the meeting went, and what contributions/questions from the floor can be incorporated to the process so that the charter can be finalized soon.

I like very much the progress done on the text regarding expert advice. Fully support that. Only small detail there is that it will be important to mention there that expert advisors should also disclose any conflict of interest.

I am very sorry about my lack of participation to the last 2 meetings or to share comments before, but I really have to express my concern about 2 important issues that were changed during your discussions over the last 2 meetings that I do not agree with, which were already discussed in previous meetings. I have argued to support both issues below in all the previous meetings I was able to attend, as well as documents shared with the mailing list.

  *   I do not agree with the use of the words “non inconsistent” when referring to ICANN’s mission. Fund allocations must be in line with ICANN’s mission as that is key not only to preserve the tax status, but also to support communities that can hardly access other sources of funding (like traditional donors) as they do not understand the nature of the technical challenges those projects or organizations are trying to solve/address. For example, it is very hard for organization maintaining root-servers, IXPs, developing standards (just as an example) to apply for traditional funding. The auction proceeds provide a unique opportunity to support the stability of the Internet not only at the infrastructure level. Projects/organizations applying for funds should be able to articulate how their proposal is actually in line with ICANN’s mission. The previous word in use was “furtherance”, which was already wide enough. By changing it to “non consistent” the text has an even weaker approach to support ICANN’s mission.
  *   The text about diversity was modified, and the mention to the 3 communities that ICANN serves was removed. I do not support that change. It is very important that the diversity focus also applies to the communities ICANN serves.

Also, just wanted to point out, that as we are pushing so hard for disclosure of conflict of interest, it will be important to have all our SOI updated on the DT wiki, just to be consistent with what we are talking about. There are a few there hat are missing.

Warm regards,

Sylvia

Subject: [Dt-cwg-auctionproceeds] For your review - updated slide deck

Dear All,

Please find attached for your review an updated version of the slide deck. Note that we are still working on the process & objectives for this session slide but we already wanted to give you an opportunity to review this version and encourage you to share any additional questions you think need to be called out as part of the cross-community session. You will see that there are still slides with the verbatim text of the charter in the deck, but those are merely there for background and/or when needed during the discussion.

Looking forward to receiving your input.

Best regards,

Marika
