    OECD meeting is running long so I won't be able to join the call. 
    On the accountability issue, I'm fine with the concept of leaving it

                  Accountability.  The phrasing may not be correct to

                  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

              <div>Ok. I still think the first question in 2b covers
                this, but perhaps it will become more clear if we can
                discuss it on the call. I think it’s important that we
                not build in a way for us to second-guess the substance
                of the proposals we receive from any of the operational
                communities. For example, if between the time we receive
                the names community proposal and the time we’re wrapping
                up step 2, something happens in the ICANN accountability
                work that undermines the names proposal, I want the
                names community to be the judge of that, not us.</div>

                                        <div>I have concerns about

                                          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

                                        <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

                                          receiving the proposals
                                          themselves and the statements

                                          Obviously we will be talking

                                          Joe did the heavy lifting to

                                          in the document from Joe and
                                          myself that are worth
