[ispcp] WG: [council] Motion on the Proposed Process for GNSO Endorsement of Nominees to the AoC Accountability and Transparency RT
Dear colleagues, Please see the draft documents and motion attached which the council shall approve on 18 Feb by simple majority support from each house. I'd like to encourage you to - Ask questions and make comments as soon as possible so that anything that is not clear, can be clarified quickly - Make any proposed amendments to the motion as soon as possible so that they can be discussed prior to the meeting on the 18th The good news is that the process needing approval on 18 February only affects the first AoC review, i.e., endorsements for the 2010 Accountability & Transparency RT. We have more time to develop a process for subsequent reviews. Thanks in advance Wolf-Ulrich -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: owner-council@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-council@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Im Auftrag von William Drake Gesendet: Mittwoch, 10.
