["Jaime Wagner - CGI" <jaime@xxxxxx>]

I endorse Wolf's opinion:

?the selectors should take the burden of this confusion and shift the
announcement of the RT members?

Assunto: [council] AW: [liaison6c] EXTENSION OF DEADLINE - Call for
Applicants for a Position of Volunteer Review Team Member - 29 July 2010

 

We have a very uncomfortable situation:

 

- applications have to be accepted until 29 July (2 weeks extension) - to
whatever SO/AC they are related. That's what yestarday's announcement update
says. And any candidate can rely on this since it was community wide
published.

- I assume this happened in accordance with the selectors since they're the
masters of the overall process.

 

My personal opinion is that therefore the selectors should take the burden
of this confusion and shift the announcement of the RT members. 1 week shift
is a minimum, 2 weeks would be satisfactory.

Betreff: RE: [liaison6c] EXTENSION OF DEADLINE - Call for Applicants for a
Position of Volunteer Review Team Member - 29 July 2010

Just to add that as Chair of the ISPCP I?ll also be formally objecting to
the fact that the extension does not apply to the GNSO candidates. This is
totally unacceptable.

 

Chuck ? You make the point that the issue of 2 or 4 reps must be dealt with
as a separate issue. If that?s the case, by the same token so must the issue
of the timetable for GNSO endorsement. As a minimum any decision on this
must require council support, its? far too big an issue for an arbitrary
decision by the council chair. This activity gets to the very heart of
ICANN?s future.

 

Regards

 

Tony

Marilyn,

 

I?m shocked as well Marilyn but for very different reasons than you.  

 

The rationale for my decision is really very simple.  This extension was
made without consultation with the GNSO and without any consideration of the
approved GNSO endorsement process.  Once I found out about it (today after
the Council meeting, on the last day of the application period), I asked one
simple question: will the deadline for GNSO endorsements be extended by the
same amount of time?  I was told no; GNSO endorsements are still do the end
of August.  The Council approved a process that gives SGs 21 days to to
perform their endorsement processes and then allows time for the Council in
consultation with its respective groups.  We were given 45 days for our
process; with the extension we would have two days and we don?t have a
Council meeting scheduled until the middle of September.  I can see no way
to make that work.  If the time to execute the process was extended by the
same number of days as the application period, which I assumed was the right
thing to do, I would not have reacted the way I did.  

 

Normally, I would have at least consulted on the Council list before acting;
in this case I made the judgment that any more delays would just add to the
confusion and seriously hinder our ability to meet the end of August
deadline.

 

I am not a aware of a GNSO policy council.  I assume you mean the GNSO
Council that is tasked with managing the policy development process.  I also
believe that having 4 reps on the SSR RT is important, but that is a
separate issue.  I sent a message off in that regard to the selectors this
morning.

 

Feel free to send any letter you like.  I think it would be good for the
Board to know how this came about because it was totally unacceptable.

 

Chuck

Chuck, while I NOTE your 'notice' on this topic,I strongly object to your
decision.  I have no idea why this is viewed as acceptable. It is not
acceptable to my constituency. 

 

Frankly, the GNSO poiicy council should have been spending time on
advocating to change the number of reps from the GNSO [as an SO] from 2 to
4, as all of us believe is critically important. 

 

I have seen no energy on that front and that disappoints me. 

 

Instead, I am seeing this notice from you, as chair of the policy council,
that surprises me, and actually, shocks me. and, I guess, disappoints me. 

 

There is a notice of an extension. I sent that out immediately. It is
broadly distributed in the business community. I told people of the
extension. 

 

Where has your decision come from? an edict from ICANN? If so, then this
needs to be made public, and the leaders of the SGs need to be engaged. 

 

Let's sort through this and why this can't be accepted. the extension has to
be applied to all. 

 

 

All of us are, in the community of leadership in the SGs are working hard to
work with the gnso policy council, but to see an announcement from the chair
of the policy council that suggests that the extension does not apply to
GNSO candidates is mystifying, confusing and cannot be supported by the BC
chair.

 

upon receipt of the extension, like any good chair of a constituency, and
executive member of a SG,  I  distributed the ICANN staff announcement about
an extension to the BC and other leadership of CSG. I advised my
constituency and others of the extension. 

 

I could say: I just don't get it. 

 

What is the process to decide that an extension that is announced does not
apply to the GNSO candidates? I have no idea what you mean by "unless
notified to the contrary", but it must be a code for something. Please call
me at 202 252 6787 on my cell. 

 

At this point, I am writing a letter of concern to the full Board that this
extension which is now publicly available, is denied to GNSO candidates. 

 

Fill me in on why I should not send that letter.  You can call my cell at
202 251 6787. 

 

 

 

Marilyn Cade

BC Chair
