RE: [ga] Procedure.

["Cade,Marilyn S - LGA" <mcade@att.com>]

I will not be able to support the first motion because this is not the right approach for the GA of the DNSO. There are many reasons, including the points made by Darryl.  And, in addition, this  motion is very US centric in its approach to redress-- which is exceedingly ironic. 

My personal view is that the GA has been seriously diverted from providing comments on the White Papers.  

However, leaving that aside, the second motion is much more appropriate in its focus.  While I have some problems with some of its phrases, it is focused toward providing comments toward the right "recipient" -- ICANN.

I don't normally respond to Jeff Williams posts but as this is topical I
will for this instance.

The statement above highlights the problems I have with the first
motion.  The motion does not and is not intended to inform the ICANN
Board or staff as to anything.  It is directed at an external body and
bypasses the internal processes. 

As such I believe it is out of order for this Assembly and can not
support it.

Darryl (Dassa) Lynch.
