Does that mean we can all indicate how we would have voted to the Board?

 

Avri - could you provide can update of where we are with this. Have you
communicated anything at all to the Board regarding this vote yet?

I agree that Tim's approach is sensible. But if we're aiming for maximum
transparency, I would also like it be recorded that in my message before the
meeting stating I would be unable to participate, I said I would vote in
favor. This may also be useful info for the Board.

I'm not sure I can post to the Council list from this, my secondary email
address, so perhaps one of you would be kind enough to forward this message
to the Council list.

Thanks,

Stéphane

Hi

 

Avri's proposed approach is sensible and would be NCUC's preference.
However, if there's overwhelming sentiment that differentiated reporting is
needed, it would be better to respect board members' intelligence and
dispense with the transparent spinning.  Tim's approach would be preferable
in that context.

Avri,

 

Perhaps, in this sunset of the GNSO as we

have known it, you may see your way to

accomodating this rather simple request from

three of the existing constituencies.

 

I beleive that all of us are trying to get the

restructuring process "right", and certain

issues are important to some rather than to

others. I think the Board deserves to be

aware of this.

 

Thank you.

 

Tony Harris

Avri,

this request is about transparency and relevance.

It is a formal request from the BC.

Philip
