Re: [council] NC task forces compositionIssue
YJ,
thanks for your email. Let me answer your
questions.
[Issue 1] "An ICANN-relevant organisation is defined as one
that any NC member considers to be ICANN-relevant".
This definition is intentional - we cannot define a list of
such organisations. The definition allows an NC member to object and make a case
if they believe there is a problem. (If they cannot make any argument that the
rest of the NC believes in, they may choose to withdraw their
objection!)
[Issue 2] The rules in our rules of procedures are guidelines.
If we choose, as the NC, we can change them at any time and agree to an
exception.
[Issue 3] General Assembly going to be considered the 8th
constituency?
As the constituencies are members of the GA , this would be a
problem.
[Issue 4] The criteria on when those variation can be proposed
under which
condition? I have tried to set guidelines for everyday purposes. Only
when the NC thinks there is a good reason, will it choose to vote by
majority and change the guidelines. That seems to me to be the right balance of
guidance and flexibility.
YJ, a year or so ago we had no rules. We now have a set of
them to help make our processes more effective. Lets try them out. If they work
- good. If they prove to be an obstacle - we can change them.
YJ
