[council] AoC RT Endorsement Process Document and Motion

[William Drake <william.drake@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everyone,

As mentioned on the last Council call, the drafting team has reached closure on 
a simplified, fairly apolitical proposed procedure for the routine handling of 
review team endorsements going forward.  Hopefully this removes from the 
process any guesswork and undue stress.   Please see the attached document and 
distribute it to your SGs for discussion and any feedback with an eye toward 
adoption on the next Council call.  Re: the latter, I hereby make the following 
motion (thanks Margie for drafting); the mentioned link will be added later.

Thanks,

Bill


MOTION TO APPROVE AOC ENDORSMENT PROCESS:

Whereas, in furtherance of ICANN’s responsibilities under the Affirmation of 
Commitment (AOC), the GNSO Council formed a drafting team to develop a process 
to endorse volunteers to serve on the each of the AOC review teams;

Whereas, the AOC Review Requirements Drafting team (AOC-RR Drafting Team) has 
proposed a process to facilitate such GNSO Council endorsements;

Whereas, the GNSO Council desires to adopt the AOC-RR Drafting Team proposed 
process for all future AOC review team selections;

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT:
 
Resolved, that the GNSO Council hereby approves the Endorsement Process 
described in the attached document <insert link to document>;
 
Resolved further, that the GNSO Council should implement the Endorsement 
Process for all future AOC review team selections, including the “WHOIS  
Policy” and the “Security, Stability, and Resiliency of the DNS” Review Teams; 
and
 
RESOLVED FURTHER, ICANN Staff is requested to post and distribute the 
Endorsement Process as widely as possible to all GNSO related groups in an 
effort to inform qualified applicants of the important work of the “WHOIS 
Policy” and “Security, Stability and Resiliency of the DNS” review teams.
