I agree with Judith on this and would add that penholders are ultimately responsible for getting the work done, which includes preparing draft documents, presenting and discussing them with the community, and finalizing the draft to be submitted to ALAC for final approval. Anyone else should be able to comment. Shepherds provide guidance throughout this process. Therefore, penholders have edit access, while anyone else has comment-only access.-edOn Sun, Feb 9, 2025 at 4:28 PM Judith Hellerstein via ALAC <alac@icann.org> wrote:Hi all_______________________________________________Thanks for these comments. I think the pen holders should have edit access and everyone else should have commenter access. The Shepard , in my opinion, is to give guidance to the pen holders and the commenters. They set the tone for the report.JudithSent from my iPhoneOn Feb 9, 2025, at 12:42 PM, Bill Jouris via ALAC <alac@icann.org> wrote:Hi Pari,Let me offer a structural/process suggestion. My experience is that anyone accessing one of our Google docs is, by default, in EDIT mode. Which means they can delete anybody else's contribution. It would help if the default was SUGGEST mode, with only the pen holder allowed to Edit.Not a perfect solution to the lack of transparency. But at least a step forward, as it would be clear who was making deletions.Bill Jouris
