Thanks Angie.  Please see attached report.  Many thanks to staff, Vice Chair Lori, and former Chair Ron for their assistance in preparing these slides.

Hopefully we will get more responses to the two questions in the “straw poll” in the next day.

I agree with the questions proposed.  It would be helpful to see the context/report when/if it becomes available.

Thanks Julie.   I should correct the deadline for responses to Thursday February 5 20:00 UTC – (as Feb 4 is Weds.)

I appreciate knowing about the task assigned in relation to review of the Westlake report.  My observation is simply that SCI should read it before commencing any work on developing a plan for periodic review.  To clarify, I am not implying in any way that SCI should itself be the reviewer of the Westlake Report.

Cheers,
Anne

Importance: High

Dear Anne,

Thank you very much for initiating the straw poll.  Mary and I think it will help to elicit responses from those SCI members who have not yet expressed an opinion.

Staff also thought it would be helpful to point out — because some SCI members may not be aware of this — that there is a GNSO group already tasked to review the Westlake report.  That group is the GNSO Review Working Party, chaired by Jen Wolfe.  See the wiki at: https://community.icann.org/display/GR2/GNSO+Review+2014+Home.

Best regards,
Julie

Subject: SCI Chair's Report to Council

Dear SCI members, please provide your informal responses to the two questions below by 20:00 UTC on Thursday February 4.

Lori and I are finalizing the Chair’s report to Council.  Staff has prepared some draft slides for this purpose and we will be making minor edits.  For purposes of completing these edits, it would be helpful for each member to weigh in on the two questions below.  (Please note this is an informal inquiry  – not a formal Consensus Call since these topics do not involve a formal SCI recommendation to Council.)


1.      In connection with the question of establishing a procedure for friendly amendments in the Council Operating Procedures, should SCI undertake this work?



2.      In connection with the question of considering the application of the 10 day waiver rule to resubmission of motions in the Operating Procedures, should SCI undertake this work?


With respect to Question 1, I have not heard any disagreement or objection in the January 20 call or on the list, but Mary Wong is very concerned that only three people have provided comment and feels it is quite important for SCI to have the results of a “straw poll” on the topic of friendly amendments.

With respect to Topic 2, I understand that both Greg and Amr believe this topic should be addressed, but Avri does not.  Again, there is concern that comment from three SCI members is incomplete.

Regarding other topics discussed in the January call and on the list since that time, I believe it is clear that those topics come under the “periodic review” element in our Charter and require at a minimum (1) Review and discussion of the Westlake Report and (2) formulation of a proposed plan under the SCI’s “periodic review” responsibilities as to which we will need formal consensus for the purpose of making a recommendation to Council.  I would like to suggest that SCI work toward adopting such a “periodic review” recommendation under its Charter in time for the Buenos Aires meeting but realize that others may have different thoughts.   This can be explored further  in future calls.

Thank you,
Anne

Anne,

I can assist by preparing a couple of slides.  I can look back at your message, but ideally the slides should just have very brief bullet points.  If you and Lori have some brief points that you would like to send me separately in an email I can incorporate these into slides in the template we are using for Singapore presentations.

Best regards,
Julie

Hi Avri,
Lori and I will schedule the SCI Chair’s Report for the first ten minutes of the time with Council.  (Lori, I will come to you off list regarding this.)  Thanks to staff for pointing out that the SCI Chair must report at each ICANN public meeting.

Many thanks Avri for your thorough and sincere explanation of your thinking on the best SCI working method.  This  deserves further discussion as to our working process in the next SCI call.  I honestly don’t think there were any inconsistent positions taken and again the mp3 may assist on that point.  Have you had time to listen to it or to read the transcript?

Regarding the remainder of your observations, I will come back later today with some further thoughts for discussion on the points you have made.

Have a great day in all respects and thank you for your active contributions to the list.
Anne
