Mikey, et. al.,
I think this is a perfect time for the community to offer its opinion of Fadi's
performance. Come London, we will be two years into his stewardship.
The method has always been open to suggestion and the motion I offered is a
blunt instrument that will get the ball rolling.
The reference to the constituencies and stakeholder groups is to note that this
is a community wide activity, though the Council only has a role in the GNSO
The intent is for some group of the leadership to serve as the recording
secretaries for the contributions; not to control the activity. Somebody has
to read and summarize the stuff.
Finally, I don't see this as a battle, but a chance at a little
self-determination as the world inside ICANN begins to look like the world
outside.
Hope this helps.
Berard

hi all,
sometimes i come up with an idea late at night that sounds killer clever - and
then the next morning i look at it in the light of day and realize that if i
really want to pull this idea off, it's going to take a lot more thinking and
refinement before it's ready.
immediate reactions:
- i'm uncomfortable with the “constituency and stakeholder leadership” phrase -
if it's truly going to be reflective of the bottom-up process, the
participation ought to be open, just like a working group is open
- if it's going to be run like a working group, it ought to be chartered like a
working group - problem statement, scope, approach, deliverables, all that jazz
- if it's really going to be reflective of the whole community it ought to be a
cross-community working group and not contained by the edges of the GNSO
as i follow my nose down that chain of logic i find myself stepping back a bit.
are we really ready to take this on? are we really the right group? is this
really the best way to express our concerns?
is this the battle that's most important to fight right now?

Klaus,
As I said, this is new ground and deserves the group's thinking. Consider my
efforts merely the provocation.

Dear Berard, Dear All
Whereas, I am not necessarily opposed to the motion, I wonder if the GNSO is
the right place to move and develop it. As a newcomer to the GNSO Council, I
want to be clear if this is inside the pdp remit of the council.
Please advice!
Yours, Klaus
PS: Whereas I move, the motion should be filed under "clever ICANN CEO's
assassination attempts". :-)

All,
Does this get at the intent? Suggestions are more than welcome as I think we
are breaking new ground here. I apologize if the format is not perfect, but if
we crowdsource it, I think we can button it up.
Cheers,
Berard
Whereas, Fadi Chehade was announced as the new CEO and President of ICANN at
the organization's meeting in Prague in June 2012, and
Whereas, in his first presentation to the ICANN community in Prague in June
2012, he noted that “I am driven by building consensus. It is the reason I am
here today. There is no other reason. I love doing this. Bringing communities
that on the face of it could never be brought together to agree on common
things is exactly what I strive to do,” and
Whereas, as reported at the time he joined ICANN, “In selecting Chehade, ICANN
went with someone who isn't well known and isn't well versed in the
organization's core tasks - keeping the Internet address system running
smoothly,” and
Whereas, in the two years of his term, the landscape of the Internet and role
played by ICANN has changed in ways equal only to the origin of the
organization, including significant budget and staff increases, and
Whereas, in response to the expanded attention to the domain name system and
ICANN's role in managing it, Chehade has championed changes in the policy
development process,
Therefore, beginning on March 26, 2014 with the passage of this motion, and
continuing through the next ICANN public meeting in London in June 2014, the
community, under the leadership of a review committee comprised of the GNSO's
constituency and stakeholder leadership, shall have the opportunity to offer
comment on the performance of the CEO.
