RE: [council] Motion for the creation of CWG-IG

["Winterfeldt, Brian J." <brian.winterfeldt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Avri and all:



I write to offer a potentially friendly amendment to the motion for the 
creation of the CWG-IG.



By way of background, the current motion reads that "Each GNSO Stakeholder 
Group will identify one member to serve on the CWG-IG by 15-October-2014."  The 
IPC feels that this is an oversimplification.  Instead, in conformity with the 
CWG-IG Charter, and discussions among the Charter drafting team, we propose 
that the motion instead read as follows:



Each GNSO Stakeholder Group, or (where a stakeholder group consists of separate 
constituencies) each constituency, notwithstanding the GNSO Co-Chair 
appointment, will identify one member to serve on the CWG-IG by 15-October-2014.



We hope this revised language and level of clarity meets with your approval.


Thank you,

Brian
