Thanks Avri,
Wise input. Again, I find myself having very similar views to you on this
one - MSI Panel / GNSO interaction.
It seems to me that we should engage with the work of the panel, absorb
proposals where appropriate and similarly push back where proposals are
difficult to integrate.
I have had a 45 minute call with Beth Novek and she was very interested to
engage with and hear from us.
As I see it, there are a number of (non-exclusive) options including:
1. Further direct dialogue between Beth & myself.
2. A written submission / response from the GNSO Council
3. An invitation to meet with the Council in Singapore
Please note that the remit they have been given means they are working to a
very aggressive timetable.
Jonathan

... an opinion on MSI Panel / GNSO interaction while I was probing one of
Mikey points.

I think we need to treat it as possible input for our own continuing
improvement path. with ICANN spending oodles of bucks on this process,
we shouldn't disregard the possibility that they do say something
useful. Despite the 'neoclassical style' of their prose.
While reading it, and listening to the presentation, it put me in mind
of a infomercial for a Branded social improvement product. Nonetheless,
I think that many of the the techniques they suggest are things we could
consider and possibly even build in pilot projects on some of our
processes. But we need to understand them as tools for the purposes of
the GNSO and not as solutions in search of a problem.
I think it is important that we do not make the mistake they appear to
be making, and missing out on the pony because it is hard to find ones
way through hay (or something like that).
I think a good conversation with them, or those of the MSI panel who are
about in Singapore, is a good idea. It also might be good to organize
ourselves (a drafting team?) to offer a critical analysis of their output.
