No I suspect it is not this.<br>
<br>
On this working group we have to remember that the Board (and US
DoC) and most of the registries and users of the IETF protocols and
the worlds ISPs etc who are dependent on the Internet Protocols
consider that the greatest public good is that the system, and
especially the IANA functions, operate smoothly 7x24x365. This
means that the Internet itself continues to run 7x24x365. That is
the sort of public interest test they are applying. And their
response indicated that they were concerned, despite our attempt to
try to put "Chinese walls" around the how to operationise our
wording to be worked out in a year, that it would potentially effect
this.<br>
<br>
It would be best to engage the Board members on the CCWG to
understand better what scenarios they identified with the language.
(And I think it would be good for us to give concrete examples of
actual breach of human rights within ICANN that we are concerned
about - that can focus the minds/conversation)<br>

OK Niels, they also think that increased transparency is
against the global public interest. I infer that they think

<pre>Dear all,
By now you have probably all seen the comment of the board on the
proposed raft report, and especially annex 6. If not please find them
attached.
I have to say I was both dismayed and struck by surprise when I read
the comments, but I am very curious to learn what you think.
My main feeling was that we have already addressed all points that are
brought up, but again I am very curious to hear your opinion.
Finally. The biggest surprise came from the suggestion of the use of
the public interest instrument, which seems to be quite far fetched to
use in case of human rights. !<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre> I can<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>imagine the headline: ICANN board
think human rights are against the public interest.
Looking forward to hear what you all think.
All the best,
Niels
