Just one comment: as I looked trough the Reconsideration process, there was a preliminary recommendation by the BGC before there was a finale resolution. so my question is if we want to look into the timelag between staff/committe recommendation, actual resolution, and final publication so we get a *time horizon of the whole process* But this is a suggestion only. thank you Carlos Raul Carlos Raúl Gutiérrez Miembro del Consejo SUTEL (Costa Rica) Presidente pro tempore REGULATEL www.sutel.go.cr + 506 4000 0010 Oficina + 506 8335 2487 Movil 2013/8/16 Fiona Alexander <FAlexander@ntia.doc.gov>

Below is what we have begun the review with. Please let us know if there are other criteria to consider.

Review of the ICANN Board Resolutions on three (3) overarching criteria in order to determine the quality of such decisions and whether they make sense to ordinary citizens not heavily involved in the ICANN process:

1. Does the Board provide a clear explanation of its decision? Are there substantive actions to be taken to further improve the ICANN process? 2. Does the Board provide a clear and reasonable rationale for its decision? Is that rationale easy to understand to an ICANN outsider? 3. Does the Board provide an explanation of how it took into consideration public comments (if any)? If comments were considered, how did they affect the decision? _______________________________________________ atrt2 mailing list atrt2@icann.org https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/atrt2
