By-Law Changes Motion proposed by Avri Doria and seconded by Chuck Gomes
Whereas
On 28 August 2008 the ICANN Board of Directors approved the BGC plan to
restructuring of the GNSO; and
http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/minutes-28aug08.htm
On 27 March 2009 the ICANN Policy Staff introduced a draft of proposed by-law
changes related to the restructuring of the GNSO; and
http://gnso.icann.org/drafts/icann-bylaws-changes-re-gnso-27mar09.pdf
Subsequent to receiving the changes suggested by the ICANN Policy Staff, the
GNSO Council decided to create a Committee of the Whole to work on a proposed
set of changes to the By-laws which committee was open to council members as
well as substitutes from the constituencies and to representatives of applicant
constituencies; and
On 8 June 2009 the Structural Improvements Committee of the Board Directors
gave a set of clarification to questions posed by the GNSO Committee of the
Whole; and

On 12 June 2009, the ICANN legal counsel gave a set of recommend edits to the
GNSO Committee of the whole.

Resolved
The GNSO recommends to the ICANN Board of Directors that the By-laws related to
the GNSO council be amended to read as documented in:
http://www.icann.org/en/general/proposed-gnso-council-bylaws-amendment-clean-30jun09-en.pdf
The Motion passed.
12 Votes in favour:
Adrian Kinderis, Tim Ruiz (Registrar constituency), Jordi Iparraguirre, Edmon
Chung, Chuck Gomes (gTLD Registries constituency) (two votes each)
Avri Doria, Olga Cavalli (Nominating Committee Appointees)(one vote each)
3 Abstentions: William Drake, Carlos Souza (Non-Commercial Users Constituency),
Kristina Rosette (Intellectual Property Constituency).
1 Vote against: Cyril Chua (Intellectual Property Constituency).
Absent Council members: Philip Sheppard, Mike Rodenbaugh, Zahid Jamil
(Commercial and Business Users Constituency), Ute Decker (Intellectual Property
Constituency), Tony Holmes, Tony Harris, Greg Ruth (Internet Service and
Connectivity Providers Constituency), Mary Wong (Non-Commercial Users
Constituency), Terry Davis (Nominating Committee Appointees), Stéphane van
Gelder (Registrar constituency).
Kristina Rosette: Reason for abstention:
It is inappropriate for there to be a vote on the by-laws until we have a
resolution of the allocation of Board seats 13 and 14 as well as the absence of
language pertaining to the temporary transitional allocation of the six seats
in the NCSG.
Bill Drake: Reason for abstention
Reason for abstention:
I abstain because the document is not done and we are waiting for clarification
of some closely linked issues that will affect our participation in the new GNSO
Carlos Souza: Reason for abstaining:
I understand that the wording regarding the NCSG seats have been changed and we
do not have the blank space at the end of the clause as it was presented in
Sydney. However, there are some issues that require further input and the
document as today is still incomplete on that regard.
