Subject: [ga] Additional Mailing Lists


> To:  DNSO Secretariat, NC Chair, and GA members
>
> The proposed new mailing lists under discussion are intended to facilitate
> work item proposal and development, discussion of work items, draft
document
> preparation, and participation in research and drafting committees of the
> General Assembly.  It has been noted by the DNSO Secretariat that
> "technically, there is no problem at all to open any new list", and that
> problems to be expected generally fall within the realm of procedure:
>
> a. date to open the list
> b. date to close the list
> c. posting rights
> d. rules
> e. person in charge of adding members
> f. person in charge of rules compliance
> g. person in charge of delivery reports, etc.
>
> With regard to the procedural concerns, I certainly believe that another
> ten days is more than a sufficient amount of time to resolve any
outstanding
> discussions required, either by the GA, the Secretariat, or by the NC, and
> that we should plan on inaugurating these lists as of 1 May 2001.  Please
> let me know if there are any objections to this timeline (which would
allow
> for a full month of focused efforts prior to the Stockholm meeting on a
> variety of topics and areas of concern).
>
>      As "the GA shall be an open forum for participation in the work of
the
> DNSO, and open to all", these mailing lists will be open to all - all will
> have posting rights.   It is my expectation that participants on these
> mailing lists will self-organize into committees that will determine their
> own operational rules and will submit progress/status reports to the GA on
> the first of every month.  When such committees determine that their work
is
> complete and submit their conclusions for final discussion and
ratification
> by the GA, the committee's mailing list will be closed accordingly.
>
>      Having reviewed the requests of the members of the General Assembly,
> please note our expectation to establish the following lists:
>
> a. Rules and Procedures of the General Assembly [rules]
> b. Participation, Website, Outreach and Education [outreach]
> c. Finance & Funding Support [funding]
> d. Ongoing DNSO Review [review]
> e. Individuals Constituency [ic]
> f. Alternate Roots [roots]
> g. UDRP & WIPO Recommendations [udrp]
> h. Privacy & WHOIS [whois]
>
> This proposed collection of lists will further be discussed by the General
> Assembly in the course of the next few days.    Please forward all of your
> final comments as soon as possible so that we may move forward rapidly to
> attend to our business.
