14) Next steps ccNSO as chartering organization
14.1 Participation ccNSO in CCWG Internet Governance
Comment by Young-eum:
Motion by GNSO council to withdraw their support as chartering organisation, because CCWG-IG did not coincide with the new CCWG framework that was passed a while ago.
During the discussions it was noted that the issues may not be related to ICANN’s daily activities, but community needs to be aware of them.
Today GNSO council resolution passed a resolution continuing their support, pending a comprehensive review of the charter of the CWG-IG, and try to engage in more active informational role.
WTSA resolutions did not pass, thanks to swift intervention by Olivier.
Intention; participation IGF, iforming community outside ICANN on what ICANN is doing.
Katrina: WG will come up with better proposal. And will be reporting back to community. Young-eum was asked to provide active feedback. If ccNSO should be more active, Young-eum should let ccNSO know.
