Thank you Keith, Alan for these comments. I've 
attached some comments back on them. All very helpful.
I'm sorry for the confusion around the Public 
Accountability Forum idea. What I was trying to 
suggest was that that suggestion be incorporated 
in the ICA so two "things" aren't being created.
From memory, the notion of the Public 
Accountability Forum was to bring together 
board, staff and the SO/ACs in a public 
exchange of views and questions and comments 
about accountability issues - a sort of open 
round table, done at an ICANN meeting once a 
year. The point was to help build mutual 
accountability across the ICANN system, not 
just vertical accountability - helping to solve 
the "who watches the watchers" conundrum.
This could easily be done under the umbrella of 
the ICANN Community Assembly, perhaps with 
supplementary attendance or speaking rights e.g. 
for more of the Board, maybe the SO/AC leadership as well.
But creating it as a separate beast seems pointless....
cheers

Subject: [WP1] New section - ICANN Community Assembly
Hi all
I have taken the draft material from an older 
paper about the ICANN Community Assembly and pulled it into one place.
Please see attached and debate away!  I've 
tried to be clear on its solely advisory 
nature, and have suggested that this would be 
the forum to use for the Public Accountability 
Forum suggestion made by advisors a while ago.
best,
Jordan
