[council] For Discussion - Draft GNSO Council Restructure Implementation Report



Title: For Discussion - Draft GNSO Council Restructure Implementation Report
Dear Council Members;

Based on the active email discussion prior to Thanksgiving, I have taken the liberty of creating a new draft version of the Council’s required report to the Board on its plans for transitioning to the new bicameral Council structure by June 2009.

I addition to using some specific text recommendations by Philip Sheppard and Chuck Gomes in the introductory section, I am hopeful that I have gotten close to capturing the spirit of the Council’s discussion on this matter to date.  There are a number of notable changes to which I draw your attention:

  1. I added a section suggested by Philip that highlights “fundamental community principles to be followed.”
  2. I added a section suggested by Chuck that highlights “Council implementation priorities.”
  3. I streamlined the “Calendar/Deadlines” section but did not combine/integrate that section with the “Inventory of Key Processes and Implementation Decisions” section, pending a final resolution of that list and a decision by the Council on the order of priority.

Consistent with your discussion during the last Council meeting, I hope this draft version will make it possible for all interested parties to edit, comment and move toward a Council agreement on the list so that a status report can be submitted to the Board by early next week.

Best regards,

Rob Hoggarth
