[council] Annual report of the GNSO

["Bruce Tonkin" <Bruce.Tonkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

In December 2004, an independent review was published on the GNSO
Council.

This review contained several recommendations for improvements.

One of the tasks in Luxembourg is to review these recommendations and
check our progress against these recommendations.

To improve our reporting to the wider community, I recommend that the
GNSO produce an annual report in time for the ICANN Annual meeting (in
Vancouver in Dec this year).

This annual report should contain:
- information on activities and achievements for the past year with
respect to policy
- information on process improvements undertaken since the review
- reports from each of the constituencies of the GNSO

The GNSO Council will be reviewed every 3 years, and a series of annual
reports will assist in the review process.

I would also like to see ICANN as a whole organisation produce an annual
report, which would report on the performance of ICANN against its
operating plan and strategic plan.

Regards,
Bruce Tonkin
