I particularly believe: 
On a cross community Wg we have two chartering organizations, with equal capacities and possibilities to see, and to have opinion about the same object under discussion.
When the consensus is obtained,  all works well.
The problem arise when we have two different and irreconcilable positions.
What are the solution for this cases?. 
The absense of operating principles and procedures for this Cross Community WG need to be solve for the future. JAS is a first example, but could be more in the future.
We can´t to ask opinion of the ICANN legal councilor in each opportunity that this cases happen, Or promote a second round of discussions after to be taken resolution?. 
On the other side, we need to accept the possibility of differents points of view. In fact inside our council the resolution was taken for the mayority, not for unanimity.

> I do not believe option 2 will yield any real concrete results as like you say there is nothing in the bylaws that contemplates or discusses cross working groups.  It would seem to me that a cross working group that operates under two separate charters ceases to be a cross working group and becomes two independent groups that may address some similar topics.

> I view number 1 as the only viable option if the nature of the cross working group is to survive here.   However, I am not so sure that having 2 independent groups here is such a bad outcome.  
> 
> In my opinion, we cannot be bullied into accepting a charter proposed/adopted by another group when the charter approved by the other group addressing topics beyond the scope of the GNSO simply to keep the cross working group.  That sets a really bad precedent.

> I will keep the Council informed of any further development on this front. Also, please note that an update from ALAC on the JAS situation is included in the agenda I have drafter for our next meeting. The Council leaders are currently working on this draft, which will then be submitted to the Council, as usual.
