Re: [council] Draft GNSO Council Special Meeting Minutes of 9 July 2009
Hi Glen,
Sorry, it's summer, I'm a bit behind, and just happened to look at the
draft minutes for the 9 July meeting. I noticed this bit toward the
end:
"Bill Drake, drew attention to the disagreement among the NCUC members
with regard to the Non Commercial Stakeholder Group model, currently
open for public comments, which disregarded previous public comments.
http://gnso.icann.org/en/improvements/ncsg-proposed-petition-charter-22jun09.pdf
"
This is poorly phrased and not what I said. There is no "disagreement
among" NCUC members regarding the charter issue (except for on the
part of the one out of our 100+ members) and I made no reference to
this. Instead, NCUC members "disagree with" the SIC/staff version of
the NCSG charter.
Puzzled, I just went back and listened to relevant bit of the tape.
Below is a formulation that reflects what I actually said.
"In response to a staff plea for public comments on the proposed SG
charters, Bill Drake drew attention to NCUC members' strong
disagreement with the SIC/staff version of the NCSG charter. He noted
that there had already been a public comment period in which dozens of
organizations supported the inclusive charter model proposed by NCUC
and rejected an alternative constituency-centric model. Nevertheless,
the SIC/staff version disregards these comments and NCUC's work in
favor of a constituency-centric model. Since NCUC's members and
external supporters have already rejected the SIC/staff approach, he
questioned whether it is really necessary and practical to go back to
all these parties and ask them to re-state their positions when the
forthcoming staff synthesis could simply refer back to their prior
statements.
It's a small matter of local concern, but I would prefer not to be
substantially misquoted in an official record and would like it
replaced with the correction above.
Thanks,
Bill
