RES: [council] Swap out Jordon for Singapore

["Jaime Wagner - PowerSelf" <jaime@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We had here in Brazil news of social unrest in Jordan specifically.

It’s true that these were not persistent as the ones in Lybia, but...better 
safe than sorry.

Hi Jaime,

 

easy question, what media coverage are you you talking about for the case of 
Jordan?if you are referring to other Arab countries unrest, that would be an 
interesting way of reasoning.

Rafik,

 

My comments are made on a personal basis.

 

Deaths and constant upheaval in my opinion is sufficient reason to move the 
meeting to a place without such conflicts. Don’t you agree? 

 

As for transparency: what is more transparent than the media coverage these 
incidents are getting?

Hi Stephane,

 

well I didn't know that a councilor sending email to GNSO list means that I am 
talking on behalf of GNSO council, did I miss something?

I think that I has the right to question about the process and how the decision 
was made, are you denying this to me, Stephane?

transparent? it started with rumor and just got the info by surprise, I guess 
that we may have different definition of transparency?

finally, I think that I can still make any assertions and acting freely 
especially when there is no any given reasons and explanations, I think that I 
didn't infringe rules and I express my concern in appropriate way. 

 

Regards 

 

Rafik

Hi Rafik,

 

I would like clarification from you that your assertion that this is a 
dangerous precedent for A&T is a personal comment.

 

It seems to me that if the meeting team detect a reason for not going ahead 
with a meeting, we should support their initiatives to take action in that 
regard. Failing that, I'm sure ICANN would fall under criticism for NOT taking 
action.

 

It also seems ICANN is being fully transparent and giving ample warning of the 
change.

 

I am certain we can expect an explanation as to why the change is being made in 
the near future. I think we have to give staff a chance to provide this 
explanation before starting to make assertions, as a Council, that there is a 
"dangerous precedent" for anything here...

Hi David,

 

how the decision was made and in which information it was based. it is 
dangerous precedent and for matter of accountability and transparency I would 
like to see memo and other material that led ICANN board to make such decision 
if they will be published or not. and I don't see any element of 
confidentiality that prevent it.

 

Regards

Adrian and Council Members:

 

 The ICANN June meeting will not take place in Jordan.   A decision was made 
and the Jordanian host has already been contacted about this change.  

 

In a day or so, there will be a formal ICANN announcement concerning this 
matter as well information on the location for the next meeting .

 

Regards,       David

The latest rumours are that we’ll be heading to Singapore next folks given the 
“unrest” in the Middle East.
