Subject: Next version of the Frameworks and Principles for
Accountability and Transparency.
Dear Jacqueline,
I am writing to let you know that ICANN is
today posting the next version of theFrameworks and Principles for
Accountability and Transparency.
These documents have been in development since late 2006.The process
began with a consultation that asked the community for their views on
accountability and transparency at ICANN.An issues paper summarising these
comments was posted in January this year (http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-26jan07b.htm).Based
on the feedback that was received and the input from the One World Trust report
on accountability and transparency (http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-4-29mar07.htm),
a draft was released for comment in June.A panel discussion and consultation
session was conducted at the San Juan meeting and a public comment forum was
opened on the website for 8 weeks.A summary of the comments received was posted
recently (http://forum.icann.org/lists/draft-mop-2007/msg00008.html).
Based on all of this comment and discussion, a revised has been
posted for further community consultation.A public comment forum will be opened
on the website and we will take comments through 12 November.There will also be
a consultation session at the Los Angeles meeting to allow those members attending
the meeting to take part in a discussion of the revised principles.
I would like to encourage you to consider
the draft and provide feedback.
I would greatly appreciate you drawing the
attention of your members to this new draft and inviting them to make comments
on the public forum that will be created on the ICANN website.
This draft will be further revised based on
the feedback that is received and it is hoped that a final version will be
submitted to the Board for approval at their December meeting.
We look forward to receiving your comments
on this important document. I hope you are well and look forward to seeing you
at LA.
