Thanks Jordan for setting up this discussion. It is one we need to
carry to the whole group I believe, considering the upcoming meeting
in Istanbul. I will try to circulate a consolidated draft before our
call on Tuesday. <br>
<br>
See some comments inline : <br>

We should bear in mind that the question will be about comparing
options, so our questions will be of the kind "which option would be
more...". <br>

<div>Here are some that come to mind - above and beyond the
stress-tests, which will help, and above and beyond the
matters set out in our definition and scope document:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Legal effectiveness - how operable or entrenched would
the community's new powers be? [We can't choose a
mechanism that isn't effective, in my opinion.]<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>

I support the idea, but would welcome some details of how we would
rate a specific option to be more effective than the other ? <br>

<div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Decisionmaking quality - what impact will the
mechanism's construction have on quality of
decisionmaking? [This could be quite subjective but does
need to be considered.]<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>

I believe we can avoid most of the subjectivity by relying on the
qualities of accountability mechanisms : checks and balances and
independence seem quite relevant here. There might also be an aspect
of skillsets of decision makers ? <br>

<div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Simplicity of design - what is the level of simplicity
to implement and to explain, internally and externally?
[We have a consensus that simpler is preferable, so far
as I can tell.]<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Simplicity of operation - what is the level of
attention and resource required from the community to
make the mechanism work?<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
Nice and useful distinction around the expected simplicity of our
proposals. <br>

<div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Accountability - how is the mechanism held accountable
to the stakeholders whose power it is designed to
enforce over ICANN?<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
<div>I am sure there are more, and welcome your additions to
the list and discussion of the whole subject.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'd like to build off that conversation by starting a
table that sets out some of the aspects of each model based
on these criteria and the others that come up, so as to pull
all the key information into one place for debate in
Istanbul. I'll start working on that tomorrow.</div>

<div>Looking forward to your thoughts!</div>
