RE: [council] Policy & Implementation WG Update


All,

Just as a follow up, the Policy & Implementation WG approved the addition of 
co-vice chairs in addition to the co-chairs.  The full proposed leadership team 
of the WG is:

Chuck Gomes, Co-Chair (RySG)
J Scott Evans, Co-Chair (BC)
Michael Graham, Co-Vice Chair (IPC)
Olevie Kouamie, Co-Vice Chair (NPOC)

I look forward to discussing this and the request to invite board members to 
the group tomorrow.

Thanks.

Sure.  The Vice chair issue will likely not be resolved until after our 
Conference call, but lets put the approval of the co-chairs on the agenda.  To 
confirm, no motion is needed, right?

Thanks Jeff,

I think we should put the confirmation of the appointment of co-chairs on the 
consent agenda as you suggest.

Please could you confirm the position with Vice Chair/s as soon as you are able 
to.

It's very encouraging to see the level of interest / participation.  I wonder 
how we get similar levels of interest spread across the less high-profile 
issues?

Subject: [council] Policy & Implementation WG Update

Dear Councilors,

Yesterday we had our first teleconference of the Policy & Implementation 
Working Group.   On behalf of the Working Group, as the GNSO Council Liaison 
for the Working Group, I would like to inform you that the Working Group has 
elected to go with two co-chairs, and potentially two vice chairs.  The 
proposed co-chairs are J. Scott Evans (BC) and Chuck Gomes (RySG).  Two 
candidates have been proposed as Vice Chairs, Michael Graham (IPC) and Olevie 
Kouami (NPOC), however, the Working Group did not yet have time to consider 
whether to support one candidate or whether to have Co-Vice Chairs as well.  
The working group is one of the largest groups I have seen to date (30+ 
members), so having a strong diverse leadership team has some appeal.  The 
Working Group will consider this at its next meeting scheduled for September 4, 
2013..

In the meantime, as is required by the GNSO WG Operating Guidelines, the GNSO 
Council must confirm the appointment of the co-chairs and I ask the Council to 
do so at its next regularly scheduled meeting on September 5th.  In the past, 
this has not required a motion, but I am happy to craft one for inclusion on 
the Consent Agenda if deemed appropriate.  Until such confirmation occurs, J. 
Scott and Chuck are serving as provision Co-Chairs.

The Working Group is expected to finalize its work plan over the next couple of 
weeks and set out the milestones, deliverables, etc. and I will update the 
Council when those are completed.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Best regards,
