[IPC-GNSO] FW: [council] possible motion - would need to request 10 day waiver.

[Jonathan Zuck]

Well, muzzling is a strong word and certainly not accurate. Better to see it as reassuring the ccwg at a critical juncture

All, please see below for last minute motion by the NCSG.  A few questions:

1.  Does anyone read this as a muzzling of individual constituencies/SGs?  I know that such was the fear but it isn't obvious to me that such is the case;
2.  Assuming "no" to the above question, are there any other concerns with this resolution?
3.  Assuming "yes" to the above question, should Heather or Brian reach out to Avri to get clarification that this isn't meant to interfere with speech from the constituencies/SG?

Best,
Paul

To my fellow council members,

I would like to offer one last motion before I end my tenure on the GNSO council.

I know I have missed the motion deadline and therefore request consideration for waiver of the 10 day rule for motions, noting that this request is submitted at least 24 hours before the meeting scheduled for 21 October 2015.

I also note that I am available to consider any friendly amendments that might be required for acceptance of the resolution that might come based on Stakeholder Group and Constituency consideration of this motion.

--- Motion

Whereas

On 13 November 2014 the GNSO approved the charter for a Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability (CCWG-Accountabilty);

On  3 August the Public Comment on the CCWG-Accountability 2nd Draft Proposal was initiated, which ended on 12 Septemebr 2015;

The CCWG-Accountabilty has analyzed the comments received in the review of the 2nd draft and is working toward updating its reference implementation taking into account the concerns expressed in those comments;

and The CCWG-Accountabilty  is working in a considered and collegial manner to achieve a consensus solution to ICANN Accountability;

Acknowledging

the superb and continuing leadership of CCWG-Accountabilty by the team which includes the GNSO appointed co-chair Thomas Rickert, to whom we are grateful for his time and consistent effort;


Resolved

The GNSO reiterates its support for the process that is ongoing in CCWG-Accountability,

its commitment to participating in continuing discussions with the goal of finding solution with broad agreement for ICANN accountabity in preparations for IANA transition, and

to working through the process as agreed upon in the charter before making any resolutions declaring support or opposition to possible outcomes.
