RE: [council] FW: Letter of support ICANN - NOC AUT
Thanks Jeff.
Good points. For me two key themes emerge:
1. Our need to demonstrate our critical role and function as the GNSO Council
as well as our capacity to work effectively together in order to underpin that
position.
2. Having established 1 above, the need coherently demonstrate the vital
components (including ourselves) of the multi-stakeholder model that need to be
preserved and defended.
Neither of the above suggests an unwillingness to evolve and develop over time
but we need to do so in an environment of mutual trust which is provided by
respect for the overarching principles of the multi-stakeholder model.
I can see that we need to touch on and/or emphasise variants of the above in:
a. Our intro session on Saturday morning
b. Our public meeting on Wednesday and
c. In our meeting with the GAC, Board, CEO and ccNSO.

Thanks Jonathan.
This flurry of letters is just the the beginning of what icann will see as the
decision making becomes more top-down. If ICANN is successful as getting a
unilateral right to amend in any form in the registry and registrar agreements,
every group will be lobbying the icann board, staff and everyone else it can to
get a top-down decision made without involving the multi-stakeholder process.
Just look at what has happened already with this issue, the open vs closed
debate, and the Strawman. Regardless of your stance on these issues, the
amount of letters directly to the ICANN CEO has been staggering in the last
couple of months compared the last several years. I believe this is happening
because of the seemingly increased perception that this current board and staff
is willing to push aside the multi-stakeholder process by calling things
implementation and make top-down decisions.
If icann is seen as an entity getting more involved in "consumer protection
issues" or "competition authority type" decisions, as is reflected in the
latest version of what has been called the "public interest amendment process"
(which I call the Board Initiated Amendment process) this flurry of letters is
just the tip of the iceberg in my opinion.
All of this should be discussed in Beijing.
Best regards,
Jeffrey J. Neuman

All,
Please note the contents of the attached in relation to the protection of the
words “Olympic” and “Olympiad”.
I have been cc’d on a flurry of letters which, from what I have seen, are all
essentially the same i.e. letters from national Olympic Committees to their
respective Governments.
