RE: [council] Re: A question regarding the NC Vote
Danny,
there seems to be a lot of misunderstanding here.
First,
the payment of dues is "work in progress" for several constituencies. I am
confident that will work out, and before the final deadline which is a
reasonable period away, the constituencies will have met their
obligations.
Second, perhaps the ccTLD constituency hasn't made a
final decision on when to withdraw from the NC. That would be my hope, and not
just on behalf of the BC, but as someone who values their contribution overall
to ICANN. I am not trying to speak for them. They can speak for themselves
and will, if needed, I am sure. They will undoubtedly inform the NC of their
decision.
In the
meantime, I am not sure why you are so concerned about this issue. What affect
does this have on the GA that is any different than it's impact on the
NC? I am sure that there are ccTLD members of the GA as well. I
would hope that you are not suggesting that they should withdraw from the GA?
That would certainly not have my support as a GA member.
During
the upcoming meeting, I am sure that there will be more information from the
ccTLDs about their thoughts and progress in planning their SO. I recommend that
we all await that information. I am sure that all of us expected it to
take time for them to undertake thoughtful development and planning of a
SO. This is a lot of work, as I recall from the DNSO.
So,
let's see what their thoughts are.
Best
regards, Marilyn
