RE: [council] Changes

["Caroline Greer" <cgreer@xxxxxxxxx>]

I do not share the concerns of the IPC. I really see no need for these
changes as this diversity process may or may not ever be triggered - it
is discretionary. We are probably tying ourselves up unnecessarily. 
 
However, if this is an absolute must for the IPC, I can live with it.

Proposed changes. 
1.  Add after the first sentence in point 4:  If the list meets the
above-mentioned diversity objectives, the Council will consider the list
of endorsements to be deemed final forwarded to ICANN.
 
Sure, parallel restatement


2.  Change the now-third sentence of point 4 to read:  If, however, . .
. ... 
 
so just add however, ja?
 



3.  Change third bullet of #2 to read:  Each stakeholder group is
encouraged to (a) identify in its internal deliberations and (b) notify
Council of one or two additional candidates whom it could support, if
available, in the event that the diversity procedure outlined in item 4
below is utilized.   
 
This would mean that the council is engaging in a compulsory weeding of
any sized pool down to 4-8 "backups" who may or may not help us meet the
diversity requirement.  More work for everyone in order to preclude a
council decision by 60% of both houses.  The DT was trying to simplify
rather than complicate the process.
 
Would help to hear how more people feel about this, if they do


4.  Change the now-third sentence of point 4 to read: If, however, the
list does not meet the above mentioned diversity objectives, the Council
as a whole may choose to endorse up to two additional candidates, from
among those identified by the stakeholder groups under item 2, who would
help to give the list of GNSO nominees the desired balance.  If
consideration of these additional stakeholder group-identified
candidates does not meet the diversity objectives, the Council may refer
to the GNSO applicant pool to identify these additional candidates.
