<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> steve metalitz:Steve was an excellent witness att he hearing. Congratulations. </div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Edward Morris:Agreed. I was very happy to see Senator Cruz fall into a trap sprung by the magic Stress Test 18. Excellent work by Steve.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Edward Morris:Completely agreeStee. Your information matches that I've received today from contacts i DC.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:@Steve D. The deadline is in a Council motion, so it still stands unless the Council passes a motion to the contrary.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:thats good to hear Steve</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:I think we have to move ahead with the focus on Council</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Edward Morris:Exactly Steve</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:My prefernce is for as little change as possible - if we can port decision-making as it stands that is preferable. We need to have a discussions about whether it is appropriate and proportionate
to change</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Steve DelBianco:Could staff please put 22.7 on the screen?</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:decicional participants are the sos and acs</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:@Steve D: I'll get it up.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:I think that's right Steve</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:Sorry all, having trouble identifying it to bring up.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Darcy Southwell:6.1(a) of the new bylaws?</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:can we start by addressing the issues where the EC and Decisional particpants are clear - and then address those where they are not</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:its a specific "exception" for that particular item I would argue</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:+ 1 Steve</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:we need to focus on the rule first and then the exceptions</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Steve DelBianco:Julie -- coudl you put up the table I sent you?</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:Sorry for the delay Steve. I lost connectivity.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> steve metalitz:In order not to further prolong this discussion I will just note here the two other provisions I identified that might fall within the third category (yes/no decisions not necessarily within Empowered
Community) : 17.3(b): determining method of review of effectiveness of CSC ; 4.3(b): GNSO as claimant in reconsideration/IRP. </div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:All -- the document is unsynced.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:appreciate the table - Steve - its helpful</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Steve DelBianco:Ed is right -- Council resolution for our reccomendations requires GNSO Supermajority</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:they would not be there if they did not feel that they had a representative role I susopect</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Steve DelBianco:Question: does any other SO have votint Nom Com reps?</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:We can't judge their accountability in isolation of their role - I suspoect that they would argue they are accountabile in some form or another</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Farzaneh Badii:I agree Matt</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Steve DelBianco:@Farzi -- guess we better add Nom Com voting reps to our SOAC Accountability discussions in WS2 </div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:disagree that directed = accountability</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Steve DelBianco:The Bylaws decribe it as "default threshhold" on page 68 of bylaws</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> steve metalitz:@Darcy you mean new SG's or C's, correct?</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> steve metalitz:@Ed I did not say you supported my proposal, and apologize if I implied that. </div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Farzaneh Badii:Was this table sent to the list? </div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:@Farzi: Not yet, but I will send it after this call.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Farzaneh Badii:Thanks Julie</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:I don't think we should be trying to solve the problem of confused councillors - isn't that out of scope</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Farzaneh Badii:Steve came up with the tests, based on different scenarios? </div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Steve DelBianco:@Farzi -- yes, I just imagined some scenarios where a good majority of council might NOT prevail if we required majoirty of each house</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Farzaneh Badii:thanks Steve </div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:@Steve D: Invented just last year.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Steve DelBianco:(xvi) Initiation of a GNSO Guidance Process (“GGP”): requires an affirmative vote of more than one-third (1/3) of each House or more than two-thirds (2/3) of one House.(xvii) Rejection of Initiation
of a GGP Requested by the Board: requires an affirmative vote of a GNSO Supermajority.(xviii) ApprovalofGGPRecommendations:requiresanaffirmativevoteof a GNSO Supermajority.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:@Steve: Correct that it has not yet been used.</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:Steve - the timeline is a massive bind - we almost don't have time to address options other than default - unless we can identify a minimal number of expcetions and work on those</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:agree with the approach steve</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:0900-1030 next Wednesday</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Julie Hedlund:21 September</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:can't we do thursdays this time?</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Farzaneh Badii:I think the tests on the table should be explained Steve . </div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:agree</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> matthew shears:ah</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> Farzaneh Badii:good. an explenation :)</div>
