Re: [council] Moving ahead on the GAC communique

[Volker Greimann <vgreimann@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David,

I agree that any and all affected WGs [should/need to] be the first stop 
on our path to determining policy impact, however in some scenarios this 
may prove impractical:
- the advice does not touch upon existing policy, i.e. would require a 
new policy making process; or
- the advice touches upon existing policy that was created in the dawn 
of times (so to speak), so the original WG members are no longer 
available in sufficient numbers to advise the council.
Our process should have a clear path for all situations to ensure a 
quick turnaround.
We may also want to reach out to the Policy and Implementation WG as 
they may have discussed elements of the puzzle we may find useful for 
this endeavor as well.
Best,

Volker
