[gnso-improvem-impl-sc] Council report

[Ron Andruff]

Wolf-Ulrich, 

 

Thanks for this revision, but it doesn't resolve the matter as I had hoped.
As I noted in my previous email:

 

The question as to whether the SCI should put our work product out to public
comment (or send back to GNSO) seems to over-complicate the purpose of a
Standing Committee. The SCI role, as I understand it, is to knock off any
rough edges of processes that, in practice, expose implementation issues.
Therefore, it is neither NEW policy nor process; rather our work is simply
an effort to ensure that all of the gears fit cleanly into the chain that
drives ICANN.

 

For clarity the slide I am asking to be deleted is #8 which states:

 

Further steps:

.          How to deal with the consensus items?

- Back to council?

- Council post it for Public Comment?

.          How to deal with items raised by individuals?

 

I do NOT believe that SCI determinations need to go back to the community
for public comment.  The ICANN community is already overwhelmed with the
number of topics that need consideration and public comments - to add yet
more to that pile is antithetical to what the SCI has been chartered to do,
IMHO.

 

For my part, I would ask you to remove slide 8 altogether so as not to open
a can of worms, which could be avoided at this point.

 

I see our guiding principal as, "What makes ICANN function more
efficiently?"  Sending items of detail that simply streamline action back -
yet again - to the community for public comment is the opposite of that.

 

My two cents.

Ron, I agree. The slide could be misunderstood due to my imprecise wording.
>From my point of view it's up to the council to forward these documents to
public comment. 

The question is rather if the documents at all should be posted by the
council for public comment.

 

Is the following version agreed?

 

 

 Best regards 
Wolf-Ulrich

Betreff: RE: [gnso-improvem-impl-sc] Council report

The slides capture a good summary of our work to date, in my view,
Wolf-Ulrich - with one exception.  The second to last slide creates an issue
that could, and should be avoided at this time.

 

The question as to whether the SCI should put our work product out to public
comment (or send back to GNSO) seems to over-complicate the purpose of a
Standing Committee. The SCI role, as I understand it, is to knock off any
rough edges of processes that, in practice, expose implementation issues.
Therefore, it is neither NEW policy nor process; rather our work is simply
an effort to ensure that all of the gears fit cleanly into the chain that
drives ICANN.

 

Until the SCI has discussed this in more detail and taken a decision on the
matter there is no reason to bring it up to anyone outside of the SCI, in my
view.  For this reason I urge you to remove this slide from the
presentation.

 

Thank you for your consideration.

 

Kind regards,

 

RA
