Re: [ga] NC recommendation on the GA

[jefsey <jefsey@club-internet.fr>]

Dear Philip,
it would be easier to develop a simple unified concept throughout the
whole governance.

1. an SO is the interface of the BoD with the external world on a
defined matter.
2. it is build as a council gathering representatives of co-opted
constituencies renewed every 3 years (to permit adaptation to the network
evolution), a constituency may attend all the SO it is concerned
with.
3. and by a GA gathering every individual from constituencies or
not.
4. the Council elects the BoD directors among a list of the first
candidates selected by their GA

The assembly of the Members of all the GA form the ICANN/GA, also
named @large, elects the @large directors, providing a stable
election system 50% direct and private concerns (@large) and
50% indirect and netwide concerns (SOs), as in every modern
democracy.
