[Accountability-dt] Accountability CCWG Membership

[Avri Doria]

Hi,

I am fairly content with the 2-5 structure.  The GNSO was last
reorganized as an SG based group and I do not think that we should give
seats to Constituencies just because not every SG has been able become a
well formed SG.

NCSG has two constituencies and individual members.  Our two
constituencies have lots of disagreements and are constantly learning
how to compromise.  I do not think that our disagreements should be a
reason for an extra consensus voice in any CWG.

Likewise, I don't think that the CSG should get an extra seat just
because they state that they can't work together - which I must admit
surprises me since they almost alwasy vote as a solid unbreakable block
in the GNSO Council.

I will be arguing against any change in the Council.  As a seconder of
the motion I will not accept a friendly amendment so that would be
forced to a vote.  I do not know how a vote to amended the charter will go.

And I am against raising the number in general.  I think that the
current 2-5 structure is a fair point we got to though much conversation.

There are 7 chartered GNSO groups (Registries, Registrars, BC, IPC, ISPC, NCUC, NPOC).  So 2 chartered organizations would not get a representative on the CCWG if it is limited to 5 reps.
