Hi, You may also want to want to interchange CCWG and board in a and b, as response to that would also be helpful. Both question scenario should be answered putting the agreed community powers in perspective. Regards Sent from my Asus Zenfone2 Kindly excuse brevity and typos.

Let's be Frank, here.
I'm not entirely unreceptive to the view expressed to me by at least one Board member regarding the idea of a quick win.
HOWEVER, despite the fairly emphatic nature of the Board's objection to membership model, I do not believe I have read or heard any rationale or reasons for their, apparently unanimous, position.
Personally I have serious doubts about the Single Member model, although, probably, they are not the same doubts as the Board's.
But that is the outcome of this WG, and it should not tear up months of work without a rationale. This is simply the IFWP and history repeating itself, otherwise.
Apparently there is some legal difference of opinion between Sidleys and Jones Day on the technicalities. But I do not beleive that can be the only reason.
So, can someone please explain, in simply, preferable non legalistic terms why
(a) the CCWG proposal is unsuitable (b) the Board's proposal is more suitable.
That said, I'm not confident this would resolve the Board's concerns with
membership, so we will need to consider all options available to deliver community empowerment, including variations of the sole designator implementation.
