[CCWG-ACCT] Fwd: draft proposal for AoC section 8 - for our next call

[Drazek, Keith]

Ed, thanks for this. I agree with your suggestion. The key, in my mind, is securing the accountability mechanisms in applicable law and jurisdiction. I'm not a lawyer, but for these purposes it seems that the State of California would be explicit enough.

Best,
Keith

HI everyone,

Are we sure we want to restrict ICANN to a Los Angeles headquarters? I'm not trying to bring up the jurisdiction issue in this post, more of a real estate issue. If a dozen years from now ICANN needs a new headquarters do we really want to restrict it to Los Angeles County if real estate prices, recruitment concerns or other issues would make it a better idea to set up shop in Orange, Riverside or another county within California? If there is a legal requirement to state the county in the Bylaws so be it; if not, I'd suggest that "State of California, United States of America" should suffice.

Ed

-apologies for not thinking of this earlier.
