> At the meeting last night, I raised an issue related to the proposed Core

> In the current Bylaws, Core Value 6 reads:
>
> "Introducing and promoting competition in the registration of domain names
> where practicable and beneficial in the public interest."
>
> The proposed version (now Core Value 5) is:
>
> "Introducing and promoting competition in the registration of domain names
> where practicable and beneficial in the public interest as identified
> through the bottom-up,  multistakeholder policy development process."
>
> In the context of the Bylaws, the expression "policy development process"
> is used only in the context of the ccNSO and GNSO PDPs. The problem is that
> not everything that ICANN does is "policy", and certainly not developed by
> the GNSO and ccNSO.

> An example is the Strategy for Africa that was initiated in 2012 and by
> all reports is having very positive results. One of ICANN's strategic goals
> is to improve participation from the African region. An essential part of
> this is to build up the DNS industry there. The African strategy was
> certainly developed through a bottom-up MS process, but just as certainly
> not through a "policy development process" as described in the ICANN Bylaws.
>
> Under the proposed wording, part of the African Strategy could be rules
> out of order, and the same goes for the Latin-America & Caribbean Strategy.
> I have to assume that this is not the intent of the CCWG.

> I would be happy to simply replace "the bottom-up,  multistakeholder
> policy development process" by "a bottom-up, multistakeholder process".

> However, for those who worry that this might be an escape hatch related to
> the GNSO and ccNSO PDPs, another alternative is:
>
> "Introducing and promoting competition in the registration of domain names
> where practicable and beneficial in the public interest as identified
> through bottom-up,  multistakeholder processes and specifically the policy
> development processes when applicable to GNSO and ccNSO policies."
>
> But I really feel that this is to much detail for a Bylaw Core Value!
