I fully support the remarks made by Thiago and I am confident that several
other participants who  have the same views as we two have.
I will speak on this issue in the coming plenary.
By the way , majority and minority has no relevance in this regard
I will also speak on that in the plenary
Regards
Kavouss

> Dear Greg,
>
> It would have been best if you could have sent your question to the group
> prior to the call, and not only as the call was happening. People who were
> not present, and only saw the proposal in their mailing list afterwards,
> might perhaps be misled into thinking that the question you drafted came
> from the group, or that it reflected some degree of consensus within the
> group.
>
> May I highlight, in that context, that you disregarded the suggestion to
> submit Jorge's proposal to the group for consideration. His proposal, which
> I and others seconded, was to have the group discuss the mandate in respect
> of concrete cases, and not develop an ex-ante position in abstract.
>
> As to the question itself, my first observation is that we are not
> supposed to ask anything like this now. As reflected in our revised work
> plan of 24 April 2017, it was agreed that "the Subgroup will identify
> issues before it goes on to explore remedies"; "for each issue, the group
> will then look at proposed remedies"; "the group should not discuss a
> remedy until an issue has been identified that requires discussion of that
> remedy". The question you drafted goes in the opposite direction, as it
> concerns one imaginable remedy (change to ICANN's status or location),
> prior to having identified what are the issues to be discussed by the group.
>
> My second remark is that your proposal makes a couple of assumptions that
> are not accurate nor necessary. For example, in the first bullet point, you
> assume that no form of immunity from domestic jurisdiction is possible for
> ICANN in case it remains an organisation incorporated in California. This
> is not true, as immunity arrangements are possible under different forms.
> Take the ICRC, which has domestic and international law immunities, even
> though it remains a private organisation governed by Swiss law.
>
> My third remark is about the logical chain in the third bullet point.
> There is this suggestion that if we can't reach consensus on the mandate,
> then we would need to refer the question you drafted to the Plenary. Well,
> if there is no consensus on the mandate, then we should simply refer the
> mandate itself to the Plenary, not any question pre-empting hypothetical
> outcomes which could, by the way, only be reached in case the group engages
> in substantive discussions on the issues identified by the group and on the
> correspondent possible remedies..
