<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Based on the additional input received on
the mailing list, the leadership team further considered WG
member arguments for and against changing our polling process
to publish WG member name in future poll results.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While these concerns were originally raised
in the context of a request for raw data, the dialog has
evolved into a debate about whether WG member name should be
published to promote transparency and accountability in WG
proceedings. Some WG members have indicated they prefer to
participate in polls anonymously, but the majority of WG
members appear to prefer poll responses be explicitly
associated with WG member names. Absent a compelling argument
for anonymity, the leadership team has concluded that the
following process change should be applied to future polls.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">From here onwards, our polls will no longer
collect IP addresses from respondents. However, WG member
names will be both collected and included in published poll
results. The timestamps that are generated when responses are
submitted will also appear in published poll results. It will
be clearly stated in all future polls that, by submitting a
response, you are granting permission for your entire response
– including WG member name and response timestamp – to be
included in poll results.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As previously indicated, poll results will
henceforth be made available to the WG in two forms: A Survey
Monkey-generated summary and an exported XLS file. However,
with the above changes, it will no longer be necessary to
delete columns from the XLS file (or process that export in
any other way) prior to posting.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While some WG members may not be fully
comfortable with inclusion of WG names and timestamps in
future poll results, the leadership team believes this
decision reflects the majority desire for complete
transparency in all WG deliberations– including these informal
polls – and aligns with the GNSO Working Group Guidelines
principles of transparency and accountability. As stated
previously, member responses to these informal polls are
assumed to be provided in their individual capacity and not as
representative of any groups to which they belong.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As always, any WG member who disagrees with
the leadership team’s decision is welcome to post a
counter-argument to this list, but we hope that this approach
represents a fair balance between the different viewpoints
expressed and allows us to return our focus to the substance
of our deliberations. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best regards,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Lisa<u></u><u></u></p>
