    Accountability.  The phrasing may not be correct to avoid confusion,
    it was whether we needed to have a cross reference on whether any
    developments of the ICANN accountability process could/had impact/ed
    the accountability processes of the member communities.  This is a
    foward looking factor that may never arise, but there could be
    sshadow cast by developments in the ICANN accountability work.  More
    of a place holder than anything.<br>
    <br>
    The General comment.  Do we accept any comments from stakeholders on
    individual community proposals after they are released by the
    community and while we are in the process of reviewing them in step
    1.  <br>

                            <br>
                            Also, please note I’ve proposed a few
                            substantial additional steps in this
                            process:<br>
                            <br>
                            - A public call for comments on the
                            community proposal development processes
                            (deadline 31 Jan 2015);  this will allow us
                            to formally gather remaining concerns, or
                            statements of support for the processes
                            which produced community proposals.<br>
                          </blockquote>
                          <div><br>
                          </div>
                          <div>I have concerns about asking the
                            communities to duplicate efforts here. RFP
                            Section VI already asks the communities to
                            document their processes, level of consensus
                            achieved, and areas of contention or
                            disagreement. We also made it explicit in
                            the RFP that if people felt that they could
                            not provide comments within those processes,
                            they could send them to the ICG forum &lt;<a
                              moz-do-not-send="true"
                              href="http://forum.icann.org/lists/icg-forum/">http://forum.icann.org/lists/icg-forum/</a>&gt;
                            and we’ve been passing those on to the
                            communities.</div>
                          <div><br>
                          </div>
                          <div>The target deadline for RFP responses is
                            15 January, so I don’t think we want to ask
                            people to separately document similar
                            information in a parallel process that we
                            run ourselves at the same time when we’re
                            expecting the communities to be focusing on
                            finishing their RFP responses. I also do not
                            think it’s appropriate for us to try to
                            circumvent the community processes — if the
                            process comments we receive after receiving
                            the proposals themselves and the statements
                            made in the proposals are inconsistent, it’s
                            not clear what we would do with that
                            information.</div>
                          <div><br>
                          </div>
                          <div>My edits in the attached reflect this
                            view — I’ve re-combined into a single step 1
                            the ICG’s initial reviews of both process
                            and substance.</div>
                          <br>
                          <blockquote type="cite"><br>
                            - A specific provision for ICG consultation

                            proposal.<br>
                            <br>

                            February and June 2015 into the process as

                            present their proposals to the ICANN
                            audience, and then (in June) ICG to present
                            the final transition proposal.<br>

                          <div>I would prefer if we not be overly
                            prescriptive about any of the above items,
                            nor about the exact structure or format of
                            any text we might draft to accompany the
                            transition proposal. We have already
                            declared in the timeline our intention to
                            consult with everyone, so I don’t think we
                            need to say it again. Obviously we will be
                            talking to people at various ICANN meetings,
                            but there will surely be other venues where
                            the proposal gets discussed (as it should
                            be), so I’d rather not single out any
                            particular meetings in this document. And
                            I’m not sure why we would need to
                            specifically meet the ICANN Board in order
                            to send them the final proposal,
                            particularly in light the statement of
                            finalization steps that we now have from
                            Kuo.</div>
