I hope this is a faithful reproduction.On process:1. What should be the role of advisors? Should they offer advice on the basis of unanimity or "rough consensus", or just provide input independently?2. Should advisors restrict their role to responding to questions that have been flagged by the CCWG and routed through the chairs? Or should they/ can they flag issues they feel are important - weighed from their expertise.On substance:1. How is the accountability process taking stock of the evolving "global internet community", given that it is going to be driven by numbers from the developing world?2. Taking off from Q1, is the CCWG evaluating the future capacity of ICANN to be truly representative in the years to come?arun---Senior Fellow, Centre for Communication GovernanceNational Law University, New DelhiPh: +91-9871943272
