Hi,
In recommendation 13 of the report,
(for those who have not seen it yet :
http://icann.org/announcements/announcement-15sep06.htm )
they recommend term limits of 2@2 year or 1@3 year. I never gave any
thought to how long people had been in the council and was wondering
if a list of councilors with their years in the council could be
generated. I am curious as to how many councilors this would affect
if it were the practice. I looked for such a table in the Annex, and
while I may have missed it, did not see one. Might even be
interesting to include that information in the council members list
at http://gnso.icann.org/council/members.shtml .
Note on my personal opinions on the the issue:
I am not in general in favor of strict term limits, but i am in favor
of transparency that allows all to know how long someone has been in
place. In terms of renewals I tend to prefer guidelines that. e.g. say
- after 1 term - renew unless there is a reason not to
- after 2 terms - renew if there is a good reason to do so
- after 3 terms - do not renew unless it is vitally important to do so
thanks
a.
