The fact that the gNSO review has been finalized, a briefing of the Council
on the proposed approach is of concern. This was supposed to be a joint
effort by the Board and the Council and we are sadly without "visibility"
into the process, or the outline, or the proposal. Or the funding amount,
which I have asked for twice, on Council calls.
This is something that I propose that Council bring up with the
President/CEO and Senior staff. I had noted it on the Board agenda, but
never envisioned that there would be an approval, without discussion with
the Council.
No doubt that is planned, but Senior Staff are seeking still to schedule a
discussion with Council.
We can help them by initiating this discussion. Lets spend five minutes on
agenda bashing on our upcoming Council meeting on Friday.

Dear Council Members:
The ICANN Board just concluded its teleconference today and took the
following actions.
(1) Approval of São Paulo, Brazil as the venue for the 2006 ICANN annual
meeting the first week in December; and
(2) Approved funds to pay the evaluators for their work in connection
with the review of the GNSO;
Although there was a discussion regarding the VeriSign settlement
negotiation, there was no action taking. There is a scheduled call for
next week 28-Feb-2006. Although the Chair and secretariat have not yet
finalized the agenda for that call it is most likely to involve further
VeriSign discussions as well as those items which have not yet been
completed from today's call. As always, I will try to keep the council
informed of any developments.
Best regards,
Michael D. Palage
