Hi, How can there be any doubt that sharing their absolute power with the community is a problem for the Board. avri On 24-Sep-15 18:28, Greg Shatan wrote:
Robin,
That's an amazingly important point. Indeed, it is the arguably the essence of our reasons for picking a member model.
Could it be that this change in the power dynamic is what the Board (or their counsel) is worrying about?

Indeed California corporations explicitly provides for Members without worrying about directors' fiduciary duties. Since the corporations code is explicitly set up this way, it is odd that ICANN board and lawyers argue that somehow there is a problem. This is what Cal. corp. law was set up to do. If the California legislature doesn't worry about fiduciary duties of members / directors in a membership org, why are some this group pre-occupied with it?
Thanks, Robin

I was sad to see the selective quote, which could see people thinking I think that a membership model ends fiduciary duties on board members, or that membership isn't the right approach. I don't think either of those things for the record.
