Apologies, I missed this response this morning.

On reflection, I had seen it previously.

Jeff, all,

I fully support the idea of inviting the ICANN Board. A few days back, I asked 
the Council leadership as WG chair to send an invitation to engage early with 
the IGO-INGO PDP WG to the GAC and you have surely seen this on the Council 
list. 

 

Thus, I guess the Council should follow such requests coming from WGs as 
standard practice and not discuss them individually. I am sure that the Council 
leadership will spot the unlikely case of a request not being appropriate and 
then raise it with the Council.

 

The question that we might wish to discuss, though, is whether such 
correspondence should go through the Council or its leadership at all or 
whether it can also be made directly from the WG chairs. We had a vivid 
discussion on this in the IGO-INGO WG and it might be helpful for other WGs, 
too, to get some guidance on this from the Council.

 

Thanks,

Thomas

The provisional leadership of the Policy and Implementation WG would like to 
invite ICANN Board members to participate in and/or observe the WG activities 
at any time.  Although they would like to do this, they believe that such an 
invitation would be more appropriate coming from the GNSO Council rather than 
the Working Group (if we agreed that this was a good idea).  

 

This may be a quick discussion as it seems like a good and productive request, 
but I thought I would introduce this subject on e-mail and answer any questions 
on the Council call if any questions come up.


Thanks.
