Re: [council] Interim NC recommendations on ICANN evolution
After having read Sr. Pisanty's
report, I am concerned that some of our recommendations do not provide the type
of input the Committee is seeking. Specifically, the recommendations with
regard to funding seem a bit general and unclear. I think it is incumbent
upon us to clearly state a possible solution(s) to the funding
crisis.
Another area where we need more
clarification is with regard to the "Advisory Bodies." Who makes up these
bodies and how will they operate? What is the relationship between these
bodies and the Board? If we believe the Board should manage the policy
making process, how specifically do we envision that being accomplished?
Perhaps many of these questions are going to be fleshed out on Thursday.
However, my take on Sr. Pistany's report is that, at least to date, his
committee has not received enough specific proposals on how ICANN can and/or
should evolve to solve the problems that Stuart identified in his original
paper.
