Thanks to Laura, Susan, Marie, and J Scott for volunteering to draft BC comments on the GNSO review report. (link<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/gnso-review-draft-2015-06-01-en>) comments are due 20-Jul so we have lots of time for this one. The draft report (link<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/gnso-review-draft-29may15-en.pdf#page=4>) is long, but start with the exec summary and 36 recommendations on pages 5-15. The consultants (Westlake) aren’t recommending any structural changes in GNSO or Council. They’re mostly about process, support, transparency, training, etc. bizconst.org We commented on the timing of this review: BC Comment on Potential Postponement of GNSO Review<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Business-Constituency-Comments-on-Potential-Postponement-of-GNSO-Review1.pdf> September 2013 For some of Westlake’s recommendations, we can find prior BC positions among our comments on ATRT recommendations: ATRT-2 Final Report & Recommendations<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/BC-Comments-ATRT2-Final.pdf> March 2014 BC Comments to Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT-2)<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/BC-Comment-on-ATRT-2-questions-FINAL1.pdf> June 2013 During the last GNSO review, here are the comments from the BC: Cross Constituency statement to Board - GNSO Reform<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Statement-04-09_to_Board_GNSO_Reform.doc> April 2009 Note to Board from Cross Constituency<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Statement-03-2009_to_Board_from_CC.doc> March 2009 Reply to Board on GNSO reform issues 2<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Position-09-2008_reform_issues_2.doc> September 2008 Reply to Board on GNSO reform issues<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Position_reform_9-20081.doc> September 2008 Open letter to Board from users' community<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Statement_06_2008_open_letter_to_board_.doc> June 2008 BC statement on GNSO Reform to open session<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Statement_06_2008_Paris_open_session.doc> June 2008 GNSO Reform<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Statement_02_2008_-GNSO_reform_delhi.doc> February 2008 Reply to revised Board proposals GNSO reform<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Position-BGC-GNSO-review-11-2007.doc> November 2007 Reply to Board proposals GNSO reform<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/BC-position-BGC-GNSO-review.doc> July 2007 Initial comments on GNSO review<http://www.bizconst.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Position-12-2006_GNSO-Review.doc> December 2006
