[WP1] Agenda for WP1 Mtg: Tue 2 Nov @ 18h UTC

[Jordan Carter]

Hi all

We have a WP1 meeting scheduled for Tuesday 2 November, from 18h UTC with a
max time of 120 mins. I hope the meeting will be a little shorter.

Here are the proposed agenda items in brief - a fuller annotated version
follows below. *If you have items to add*, please share them with the list
ASAP.

*Brief Agenda: WP1 Call on 2 Nov 2015*

*1. Review of Agenda*

*2. Community Decision making*
   a) Split decisions within SOs/ACs
   b) Participating SOs and ACs
   c) Distribution of decision making between SOs and ACs
   d) Decision thresholds in the community mechanism

*3. The "Resolution / Dialogue" Step in the escalation path*

*4. Budget Power - Update from J Zuck (IF he is available)*

*4. Update from ICANN Staff about what WP1 needs to do next*

*5. Any Other Business*


Here is a more detailed agenda that sets out how I propose we tackle this.

For each item I've tried to distil my own impression of the sense of the
last call, the discussions in Dublin and more broadly from the email
traffic among CCWG members. This is in the service of us coming to some
conclusions.

As was suggested by Roelof in the last meeting, and amended a little, I'm
framing these as "WP1 recommends to the CCWG that......" statements. We can
either sign them off, change them, or agree we can't agree and kick it up
to the CCWG.


*1. Review of Agenda*

*2. Community Decision making*

In dealing with this agenda item, besides the Working Paper circulated
previously <
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zHZl_NvQ1WChatX8NT2Q1rQi4zQZgbrbAxrQSsH3tZQ/edit?usp=sharing>,
I attach a slightly updated version of Steve's "homework" paper and the
charts that Greg prepared, fyi.

   a) Split decisions within SOs/ACs

*WP1 recommends to the CCWG that each SO or AC should come to a decision by
means of its own processes, and that "split" decisions or delegating
decisions to sub-units will not be available.*


   b) Participating SOs and ACs

*WP1 recommends to the CCWG that decision rights for the exercise of
community powers be granted to the GNSO, ccNSO, ASO, ALAC and GAC. SSAC and
RSSAC will be able to advise the other SOs or ACs through the Community
Forum. Each SO or AC has the right to participate or not participate in any
decision, with their choice not affecting the thresholds established for
the exercise of community powers.*


   c) Distribution of decision making between SOs and ACs

*WP1 recommends to the CCWG that each of the five SOs and ACs with decision
rights have an equality of voice/influence in decisions to exercise
community powers.*


   d) Decision thresholds in the community mechanism

*WP1 recommends to the CCWG that the levels of agreement among SOs and ACs
in support of exercising a power, and the limits to levels of opposition,
be agreed as those set out in the paper from Steve DelBianco updated by
Jordan Carter and discussed at this meeting.*


*3. Budget Power - Update from J Zuck (IF he is available)*

*4. Update from ICANN Staff about what WP1 needs to do next*

*5. Any Other Business*
