[bylaws-coord] Guidance Requested

[Samantha Eisner]

ICANN does not currently have any practice for a delay in effectiveness of Bylaws amendments.  This would be put into effect to allow for the decisional participants to have the opportunity to initiate a petition and begin the community process that would be allowed under the new EC rights.

All,

Dear Bylaws Coordinating Group:

We have sent proposed edits corresponding to most of the CCWG Comments of May 13 as well as proposed corrections of typos and conforming changes to Sam Eisner and we have copied you on that email.

There is one item on which we need guidance from the Bylaws Coordinating Group or the CCWG relating to Section 25.1(e):  The CCWG Proposal is internally inconsistent on when Standard Bylaw Amendments take effect.  Annex 2, Paragraph 30 provides for a 28 day period, and Annex 4, Paragraph 32 provides for a 30 day period in both instances following the Rejection Action Board Notification Date.  We need direction on which time period should be used - 28 days or 30 days.


We leave it to you whether this email or the email to Sam sent today should be posted to the CCWG list.

Kind regards,

Holly and Rosemary
