RE: [council] Draft GNSO statement on IANA transition
Hi Jonathan/all, Just a more general comment to this topic/process- Within CENTR we recently came up a fast response mechanism which means we can put a comment/position within a very short timeframe (within days generally) allowing members to opt-out if desired. I wonder if a similar mechanism would be useful for the GNSO to help with speed? I've attached our process (call BoD statement - fast tracked). I do realise the structural differences between CENTR and the GNSO however thought a tweaked version of our process might provide inspiration for the GNSO. Or perhaps you've already tried something like that?

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.

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."
