Response to GNSO Council Operations Work Team on Proposed GNSO Structure

In response to the recent request for comments on the proposal  to create a
new GNSO Administrative body to deal with administrative issues the ISPCP
offers the following comments. 

The consensus view of the ISPCP Constituency is that the creation of a new
Administrative body would not be in the best interest of the GNSO. At a time
when the GNSO is fundamentally changing its structure and working methods
with the move towards a more progressive role for working groups, its
essential for GNSO to use the available resources wisely.   Under these
circumstances  GNSO already has too much work and too few volunteers.

Creating an additional stream of work would have the effect of diluting the
work of volunteers even more and bring into question the whole nature of
ICANN as a bottom up organization.  As the number of volunteers dwindles,
more and more of the work has to be undertaken by staff if the required
progress is to be made. That situation would inevitably evolve from
coordination and facilitation by staff to actual policy making. 

In addition such a move adds an additional layer of complexity, with limited
reward, since the administrative work has been carried out quite adequately
by staff.

The ISPCP does not support the division of the GNSO in this manner.
