[Ws2-diversity] diversity questionnaire - observations from 31jan mtg

[Mathieu Weill]

Rafik, 

I understand the intent, and fully support the idea to leave some room to the So/ACs. 

We may be able to accomplish both if we expand on the question by indicating that they can, for instance, indicate legal constraints, priorities, official policy criteria, etc. and for the second question clarifying they can add any other element they consider important ? 

I'm really trying to avoid any ambiguity that would lead to extra delay in the submission of the responses. Experience for the So/AC accountability questionnaire indicates that response time take up to 2 month+.

> I think that in the questionnaire we tried to be too prescriptive and give some freedom for the SO/AC to respond as much possible (in the same fashion that we tried to reduce the number of questions). if they have legal constraints such requirements in their charter or bylaws, I would expect that they will state that in their response.

> The first question will give them the opportunity to indicate what elements of diversity we listed they take in consideration and maybe indicate the priority. The second question allows them to add any element we may have missed but important to them. 
> The third question covers how the SO/AC track diversity and measure it, indicating which mechanisms they are applying if any.

> I guess having diverse interpretations can help us in some way to understand how the different groups within ICANN perceive diversity and respond to it.
