"Luck is the residue of design" -- Branch Rickey

Thanks Philip,

Regarding the two questions below, my understanding is as follows:


1.       The purpose of the statement is to provide some positive support for 
the work of the CWG in a context where many appeared to be questioning the 
extent or effectiveness of the work of the CWG. It was felt that it would be 
helpful to the CWG (and to the broader community perceptions of the CWG) to 
have a supportive statement by one of the initiating and chartering 
organisations i.e. recognising the effort to date.

2.       The effect of endorsing the statement is primarily to support the view 
of the Council in the proper way i.e. instead of the Council simply issuing the 
statement on its own behalf, the Council appropriately refers the statement to 
constituencies and SGs. A secondary benefit of reviewing the statement is the 
ongoing raising of the awareness of the current status of the work of the CWG 
within the GNSO community such that the GNSO community is in a state of 
readiness to appraise (and ideally support) the final proposal of the CWG when 
it does come out.

They are an interesting pair of questions in the context of my edits to the 
original Tony / Avri draft in that I modified the statement to be more of a 
GNSO Council statement as opposed to a GNSO statement. Arguably, in the former 
case, the Councillors could simply support the statement and the GNSO Council 
issue it. Nevertheless, in my view, it is always preferable to have such a 
statement or similar piece of work referred to the SG / Cs and supported by 
those SG / Cs.

I trust that helps.

Jonathan

Jonathan:

Members of the Business Constituency seem to be generally supportive of the 
sentiments contained in the draft Statement. However, I am being asked two 
questions in regard to it:

1.       What is the overall purpose of issuing the Statement?

2.       What is the effect of a Constituency endorsing the statement - and, in 
particular, does it replace the views of any constituency or SG or preclude a 
more nuanced and detailed future statement by them?

Once I have those answers I should be able to indicate whether the BC can 
support and/or be listed as a signatory.

Thanks and best regards,
Philip

PS-This paragraph of the Statement, as modified by you and James, has two typos:
"Given [it's] its co-ordination and policy management role within the GNSO, the 
GNSO Council remains committed to assisting the work within CWG, CCWG and the 
ICG in order that the community may ultimately deliver a sound, comprehensive 
and consensus proposal for the transition of the IANA function and one that 
will uphold the principles set forth in the NTIA announcement, and fully meet 
the needs of the global Internet community."
