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@icann.org. 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
