[CCWG-Accountability] Work Streams definition

[Thomas Rickert]

I would just like to echo what Mathieu already mentioned:

The drafting team for the charter did not want to be prescriptive and went on record stating this multiple times.
The charter was intentionally kept quite general in order to allow the CCWG to fill it with life. In fact we are tasked to put flesh to the bones.

Put another way, I think that the exposition in WS1 precisely describes the commitments that MUST be made before a transition is allowed to occur.  More importantly, I think there is growing consensus across the community that this is so.  To state it affirmatively – in the absence “mechanisms [that] would provide the community with confidence that any accountability  mechanism that would further enhance ICANN's accountability would be implemented if it had consensus support from the community” the IANA Functions transition should not occur.

> I read again the new proposed definition of the Work Streams, and I found it too different from the one in our charter:
> 
> In the charter:
> ·        Work Stream 1: focused on mechanisms enhancing ICANN accountability that must be in place or committed to within the time frame of the IANA Stewardship Transition;
> ·        Work Stream 2: focused on addressing accountability topics for which a timeline for developing solutions and full implementation may extend beyond the IANA Stewardship Transition
> 
> The new proposal:
> ·        Work Stream 1 mechanisms are those that, when in place or committed to, would provide the community with confidence that any accountability  mechanism that would further enhance ICANN's accountability would be implemented if it had consensus support from the community, even if it were to encounter ICANN management resistance or if it were against the interest of ICANN as a corporate entity.
> ·        All other consensus items could be in Work Stream 2, provided there are mechanisms in WS1 adequate to force implementation of WS2 items despite resistance from ICANN management and board.

> I don’t believe that we are allowed to change any part of the charter without going back to the chartering organizations and ask for their approval.
> 
> On the other hand, the separation of WS 1 and WS 2 was for the purpose of having the accountability mechanisms necessary before the transition done in time, and the new definition doesn’t satisfy this requirement

> I would prefer stay with the charter definition for all those reasons
