The BC's Mike Rodenbaugh has introduced the following motion to the GNSO 
Council; the motion has been seconded by Nominating Committee appointee Terry 
Davis:


Whereas, the RAA has not been amended since inception, and there is
widespread community support for amendments to various provisions of the
RAA.

Whereas, the Registrars Constituency and ICANN Staff have agreed on a set of 
proposed amendments to the RAA, and that set of amendments has been
considered for approval by the GNSO Council.

Whereas, a majority of GNSO Council members have refused to support the set
of proposed amendments as drafted, but many of those members support many of 
the proposed amendments.

Whereas, the Council wishes to approve the non-contentious, proposed
amendments agreed between Staff and the Registrars Constituency as quickly
as possible so that the ICANN Board may review them, and if approved then
implement them as quickly as possible.

RESOLVED:

The GNSO Council will form a fast-track Working Group to convene and discuss 
the proposed set of RAA Amendments, reporting back to Council within 30 days 
with answers to the following questions:

1. Which of the proposed amendments have full consensus as drafted? 

2. Which of the proposed amendments would have full consensus if drafted
differently, and what specific revisions are required to gain full
consensus? 

3. Which of the proposed amendments do not have consensus? 

4. What other issues with the RAA are not addressed by the proposed set of
Amendments?
