Dear Jor dan
Thank you for reply
First
regarding Quorum, I was not referring to ICA but to other Voting instances
in which the  voting threshold is mentioned but Quorum did not
Pls read my message again.
Second
Regarding ICA.
In a) below it is mentioned
Quote

   1.

   *": The ICA is advisory and discussion based – it has no decision-making
   rights other than to select a Chair among its members, and to agree matters
   related to its own operation as a group."*

Unquote
However, no mention is made of the basis on which the advice is formulated
( Unanimity, Consensus( AND NOT ROIUGH OR SOFT ONE as used by IETF which I
am uncomfortable with since many yeas as HUM for me is an imitation by
others to the noise made by few and does in no way provide any views
) , Super Majority or Simple Majority?
Third
About IANA Budget
Let me make it clear that I did not understand the alternative option
preferred by Martin for IANA Budget as a separate Budget .
What I do not recommend is to tie the INANA Budget with ICANN General
Budget.
Regards
Kavouss
