Hi, Except that ICANN's work and the environment it is done within was indeed part of what was considered by NETmundial. I know that for many, NET mundial was the origin of the objection about ICANN overstepping its mission. I never believed that and believe that it was an important event and within mission for ICANN to have done. I think changing the mission so as to exclude ICANN particpation and suppport for such activities would be a mistake and should not be included as a Transition goal. How about IGF, should ICANN stop its support? Is that a goal? I agree we should maintain ICANN's already restricted mission. This is what we agreed to. We have not agreed to narrowing its scope as far as I understand. avri On 08-Jan-16 11:21, Mueller, Milton L wrote:
Is floating and sustaining something like the Net Mundial Initiative, whose express purpose is to address public policy issues outside the names and numbers, and technical protocols and coordination, something within ICANN's mandate?
My answer: No.
