Mary, 

While we are at it, I think that a quick training / presentation for GAC 
regarding Consensus Policies / Picket Fence etc. would be in order. I got the 
impression today that GAC believes ICANN Board could make contracted parties do 
anything they wanted thru acceptance of GAC Advice, but they probably need to 
be informed that only GNSO PDPs followed to the letter of GNSO Operating 
Procedures have binding effect. 

But good luck finding someone willing to make such training and becoming the 
next scapegoat... ;-)
