[council] Further Draft of GNSO Council Restructure Implementation Report - for discussion

Title: Further Draft of GNSO Council Restructure Implementation Report - for discussion
Dear Council Members;

Many thanks to Chuck Gomes for helpful feedback on the last version of the draft document.  In view of the lack of comments to Chuck’s feedback, I decided to circulate a further revised draft version of the GNSO Council Restructure Implementation Report that incorporates some of his suggestions in hopes that the changes will make it easier for Council members to review and comment. This version leaves Chuck’s  previous comments in place.

Thanks to Ken Bour’s thoughtful contribution and formatting wizardry this draft version has converted the draft key process and implementation decision inventory into a chronological chart.  The new format should make it easier for all council members to evaluate and comment on the inventory and draft chronology and allow faster and more efficient editing.

In light of another comment from Chuck, I also added some edits to the Calendar section in February and March with respect to the timing for submitting new Stakeholder Group charters. All should note that the charter submission deadline will arrive sooner than you might otherwise have anticipated.

Best regards,

Rob Hoggarth

Subject: [council] 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
