Re: [council] Theresa Swinehart on the Creation of the President's Global Advisory Groups

[Avri Doria <avri@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I can only say that I wish this had all been done before the groups were 
formed as opposed to after, and that the support and advice of the SO/AC 
had been obtained before they were created and they began their work. 
This would have given them a degree of legitimacy, I for one, do not 
believe they can acquire through post-facto explanation.
I know there is theory in management of acting first and explaining 
later, and in emergencies this is can be an appropriate method. However 
as it becomes standard in ICANN management, it becomes less and less 
acceptable as a method.

Thanks

avri
