Thanks to drafting by Marie, Tim, and Mason, we filed the attached BC comment today. In the online summary, we highlighted these 3 points from our comment: Amendments to the Anti-Harassment Policy must not overlap with, or contradict, the Expected Standards of Behavior. While the latter governs behavior, the former should govern procedure. The BC strongly agrees that all members of this professional community must act in accordance with these Standards. ICANN is a professional environment, where all should feel welcome and safe. By the same token, rumor and unfounded allegations can have extremely serious effects on any individual’s ability to perform their job and maintain their professional reputation. To help inform this current consultation, BC is also interested to know how well the current policy has worked, and whether community members feel comfortable bringing their claims forward. Data on these points would be valuable as updates to policy are considered. -- Steve DelBianco ICANN BC vice chair for poolicy coordination
