Dear Co-Chairs, I am on record since very early on that I say what I mean and mean what I say. So the answer is no. The ccNSO is a Policy Development body and the policy is ICANN policy not ccNSO Policy, by the way. Come to think of it, I do not think the ccNSO can "speak" for anyone. But then I have read the bylaws. el On 2015-07-07 14:19, Malcolm Hutty wrote:

Then on whose behalf is it speaking
The members of the ccNSO, which are most assuredly not ccTLDs collectively. And only then if those members decide to allow it to do so.
OK, so Dr Lise when you said:
If I recall correctly Chris Dispain already shared concerns about the ccNSO being able to become a member.
Neither model does anything for ccTLDs, because the ccNSO has no mandate to speak for individual ccTLs, whether members of ccNSO, or not.
did you mean
"Neither model does anything for those ccTLDs who are not members of ccNSO, because ccNSO only speaks for those ccTLDs that choose to join it, and only when authorised by them to do so"?
