[Ws2-so_ac] Agenda for our meeting Work Stream 2 - SO/AC Accountability Subgroup Meeting #26, later today at 1300 UTC.

[CW Mail]

Dear Co-Chairs, Dear Colleagues:

Further to today's SOAC Accountability SG conference call, I have re-read the draft report and have the following comments and suggestions:

1.	The report is comprehensive, balanced and thorough. I can support the report as it stands without amendment should that be the WG's decision.

2.	Regarding the question of open or closed conference calls, which was discussed on our call today, I would recommend that on pages 6 and 18, it should be made clear that closed meetings would be exceptional and justified on a case by case basis. Not as a general rule.

3.	From that point of view, the sub-paragraph 4. at the bottom of page 23 could be redrafted slightly to refer to meetings that are 'exceptionally' closed… 
	Such amendment would also respond to the point raised by RySG.

More generally, closed meetings within ICANN among commercially oriented stakeholders could give rise to allegations of collusion and should be discouraged. 
It is important that ICANN, which is charged with promoting conditions of fair competition not be perceived as acquiescing in collusion among commercial stakeholders. 

I trust that this is helpful

Regards

Christopher
