[ga] ICP-4

[Jefsey Morfin <jefsey@wanadoo.fr>]

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I do disagree with Stuart's approach of the next MdR meeting (I accept that 
there are certainly pressures). My main reason why is the poor security 
image it gives of the Internet, adding to the weakness ICANN represents as 
being unique in a totally distributed system.

Now things are committed, I would like to propose a positive way out 
everyone could agree upon.

Instead of an "Internet Security Instant Manager training", it would be to 
commonly prepare the ICP-4 "Internet Security" document through the launch 
of a clean shirt review everyone could share, including the public through 
a call to the press (so they would help rather than harass us).

1. the coming days could be dedicated to gather themes for a framework. I 
initiated a WG Security to present a BC document and started gathering 
points at icann-sme: I will publish these inputs to help GA commenting and 
adding to it, so it becomes a common effort that Staff could use.

2. the target would be that in coming to MdR everyone could have some 
elements to share from his  own sector. Not to be educated about something 
very simple but highly distributed no one other than us knows, but to share 
our know-how and suggestions in shaping the ICP-4 frame.

3. I am sure this approach will lead to a reconsideration of the ICANN 
structure. Security is an highly professional issue. The ICANN illness IMHO 
is amateurism. A common effort clearly focused towards a professional issue 
may only help us clarifying and probably speeding up the other pending issues.

My 3 euro cents.
Jefsey
