[council] GNSO Review: Board Resolution

[Marilyn Cade]

I believe that we had asked to be briefed on this, including the process,
and it was on last week's Council discussion agenda, but we didn't get to
it...

While I greatly appreciate email posts which are informative, I'd still like
a more fulsome discussion on our Council call tomorrow. For instance, the
leadership of the SO -e.g. the Council --should be briefed on the overall
plans, timelines, process to be followed. I believe that was foreseen in the
initial crafting of the original board resolution which was jointly crafted.

Perhaps we can have a 15 minutes overview from Liz, and then any quick
responses to questions, under AOB.

Regards, Marilyn

Dear Colleagues

My apologies -- I should have put this in my updated email to you  
yesterday -- in answer to Ross' question.

The full Board resolution approving the Reviewer's contract is found  
at http://www.icann.org/minutes/resolutions-21feb06.htm.

In particular, "Resolved (06.__), the President and the General  
Counsel are authorized to engage the London School of Economics  
Public Policy Group to conduct the GNSO Review according to the terms  
set out in their proposal, with expenditures not to exceed US$150,000."

Kind regards.

Liz
