[council] FW: CCWG-Acct SO/AC Questions
Council Colleagues – Please see below for a request from the CCWG-WS2 Co-Chairs, seeking feedback on how each SO/AC (and component organizations) maintain internal accountability. I apologize for the delay in submitting this to the list. If there are no objections, I will work with Heather, Donna and Staff to draft a response. But please feel free to share this request with your SG/C leadership, and relay their feedback as well. Note that the CCWG co-chairs are looking for a response in early December, so thanks for giving this your attention. Thank You, J. From: Karen Mulberry <karen.mulberry@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Friday, November 4, 2016 at 4:22 Subject: CCWG-Acct SO/AC Questions Sent on behalf of the CCWG-Accountability WS2 Co-Chair’s Dear SO/AC Chairs, As you are aware, the newly-adopted ICANN bylaws tasked our Cross Community Working Group to investigate several issues as part of our Work Stream 2 effort. SO/AC Accountability is one of these items. As part of this effort, we have set up a subgroup, responsible for reviewing how each SO and AC is accountable to its designated community, and potentially to global Internet stakeholders as well. The background and progress for this group are described here[docs.google.com]. As part of this effort, the group intends to start by an assessment of the current situation. That’s why we are turning to you to point us to resources and documents used to maintain accountability to your respective designated community, taking into account the particular or specific working modalities of each SO/AC (and any subgroups). We would appreciate if you could provide responses to the attached questions within the next 30 days, so that work on this important item of WS2 can proceed in due course. Responses can be provided to acct-staff@xxxxxxxxx. Along with the rapporteurs of the SO/AC accountability subgroup, Cheryl Langdon-Orr, Farzaneh Badii and Steve Del Bianco, we thank you in advance and remain available for any clarification that you may need. Best regards, Leon, Thomas & Mathieu Attachment:
