[Gnso-newgtld-dg] Agenda for First Meeting of the Discussion Group for New gTLD Subsequent Rounds

[Ron Andruff]

Dear colleagues,

 

My thought on the election of leadership is more focused on process, i.e., the Chair, V Chairs, or whatever the group decides is best, should be unconflicted.  That is to say, they should neither be applicants nor new registries.  Within the long list of members, I am sure that we can select those that have no horses in the race, as they say.  In this way both the work and the optics will demonstrate transparency and accountability in an appropriate manner.

 

My two cents…

I second the suggestion of holding off on selection/election until the group fills out

Everyone should have an SOI

 

If they don't have one setting one up is not hard

 

.. 

 

I'd also respectfully suggest that any election / choice of DG leaders be deferred

 

I suspect that the group's make up will change between now and September as people come back from holidays etc and become aware of the group's existence

 

Regards

 

Michele

be of an introductory nature. The proposed agenda is:

*	Roll Call / Statements of Interest

 

Suggestion: only reading SoI for people that do not have GNSO SOIs (or have updates to), to shorten up this part. 

 

*	Applicability of ICANN principles of transparency and openness
*	Items for initial review -  GNSO Resolution forming this group, GNSO Working Group Guidelines, GNSO Policy Development Process (to serve as a reference point for the DG)
*	Discussion of Work Plan – Review of Interim Chair's Draft Work Plan and discussion of alternatives and tools for completing work
*	Election of DG Leaders – The DG may elect to have co-chairs or vice-chairs. Once selected, the DG Chair(s) will need to be confirmed by the GNSO Council.

 

May I suggest that no attempt to see vice-chairs as representation of that constituency in the group ? It's so much simpler to have 2 (either chair/vice-chair, co-chair/co-chair, chair/alternate chair) leaders instead of a complex structure... since *-chairs only have coordination but no definition role, it's of no use to see too much into the roles.
