[RSS GWG] Suggested KL Discussions

[ryan stephenson]

Mailing on behalf of Erum Welling. 

1) As pertaining to "Basket 1".  Need to keep in mind end goals of some stakeholders, for example, stakeholders wanting to become RSOs themselves -- leading to perhaps "the squeaky wheel gets the grease".  We need to be mindful of politics attempting to be infused into the governance process. So, upfront there needs to be a discussion on whether politics will be accepted as a motivation for action; if not, the governance principles should provide proper guidance so as to keep politics out (and only technical considerations in, for example).
2) Typically the Rapporteur leads the meetings. Is that true of the Rapporteur's role for the discussion "Baskets"?
 
Thanks,
Erum

The three topics that were identified in The Hague and we have been discussing in recent weeks are long standing questions that needed to be asked and as everyone can see we have ended with more questions than answers, so these discussions will continue.

This proposal can help us frame our work going forward.  https://docs.google.com/document/d/14kC5HLBfxouaOp5RTEvh9X8k-KwYEf2e9iidFnAel2E/edit?usp=sharing  In this document we have worked to address the conflation of principles and give examples of each.  This describes a path forward and three large substantive baskets of issues we have identified that need our attention.

This means we can take advantage of that personal proximity to work through some more of the tough questions.  If the group agrees with this process moving forward I suggest the following schedule for KL:
>  
> Saturday 17th  (2 sessions) – Separation and Balance of Powers
>                         1500-1600 and 1630-1730
> Sunday  18th (2 sessions) – RSO Designation and Removal
>                         1500-1600 and 1630-1730
> Tuesday  20th (2 sessions) – Finances
>                         1500-1600 and 1630-1730
>  
> Detailed descriptions of these issue topics are in the document linked above.
>  
> Any and all feedback or other suggestions are more than welcome and encouraged.  Please review the document linked above.  We can take a few minutes in Thursday’s meeting (tomorrow) to talk through KL and then we have some time to prepare for discussions in KL based on the identified issue baskets.
