Well, if we are going by similarity of PDP development to legislation, an analogous procedure is exactly how the House of Commons/HMS legislate! I can provide examples. On 28/01/16 15:49, Andrew Sullivan wrote:

As I have mentioned before, for me the prime issue is that human rights impact analysis be done as part of the PDP process as opposed to just waiting to see if some government agency slaps our wrist afterwards for not having considered the impact of, e.g., freedom of expression or an open internet.
It is a sign of my dimness that I didn't understand that practical goal as the real consequence. Does this mean that a bylaw -- fundamental, whatever -- that specified that any proposed policy that is the result of a PDP must have an analysis for its effects on [list of rights] would satisfy the goal? I wonder if something narrower and more tailored like that would also be attractive to the board.
And this is just the start of the transition, unless you also believe that implementation and WS2 are not part of the transition.
They're part of the transition for ICANN, but not for the IANA transition for the other communities.
