[liaison6c] RE: [council] Board action on GNSO Restructuring

[Tony Holmes]

I think it would be very difficult for a new Council to start with many new
members on a Council teleconference. Ideally that should occur at a physical
meeting to enable those people to actively engage from the start and Council
to maintain momentum.

It would also be nice to have a clear idea of the new schedule the Board has
in mind. When do they now expect the new council to sit, Korea or before?

Thanks,

Stéphane

Thanks for the timely feedback Denise.  I note that the Board recognized
that "the restructuring schedule has slipped past Sydney" but it is very
important for the GNSO to have a specific decision regarding the June target
date for Council restructuring.  Was any clear decision made in this regard?

Chuck

Dear Community Members:

At today's Board meeting, Directors  considered the status of Stakeholder
Group (SG) formation and acknowledged  that the GNSO community has made an
effort to comply with the Board's  timetable for GNSO restructuring (i.e.
seating a new Council in Sydney), that  the Board has received proposed SG
charters for review, and that the  restructuring schedule has slipped past
Sydney.  The Board approved a  resolution that: noted that the proposed SG
charters require revisions to  ensure equitable participation and
representation by new constituencies;  directed the Board's Structural
Improvements Committee (SIC) and ICANN Staff  to propose changes to the SG
charters to make them consistent with the Board’s  stated objectives; and
directed the SIC to post the revised charters, and an  explanatory
memorandum, for GNSO consultation and public comment. 

The  resolution will be posted by the Board Secretariat shortly at
<http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/>,  but I wanted to alert you to this
development ASAP.  Additional  information will be posted/distributed as
soon as it's  available.

Regards,
Denise


Denise  Michel
ICANN Vice President
