As you may have noticed, the subject of this message contains the
word "may", and the original announcement contained the word
"possible". We don't claim representativity (nor do we claim
completeness).
The list will be presented as a proposal for (as we think)
reasonable demands at Sunday's At Large Members Forum
<http://www.icannmembers.org/>, where it can be discussed, and may
or may not gather support from the members present there.
As you most likely have noted, the basic idea for several of the
demands is to (1) introduce more checks and balances for the work of
the board (however, this should not happen in a way which makes the
board inoperational), and (2) handle elected At Large, non-elected
At Large, and SO directors in a more symmetrical way.
Current asymmetries include:
- filling of vacancies
- actual end of terms (the end of a term is a hard limit for the
elected directors only, making the board fail-safe in a very
interesting way)
Also, as you most likely have noted, we are assuming the existence
of some kind of an At Large Council at several points, which
obviously can't be implemented right now. We do believe that such a
council will evolve at some point of time, and give an account of
some of the powers it should get.
The second page of demands is more short-term, and I do not believe
there is much need for interpretation there.
