Oscar,

 

Thanks. I think we are putting together a process to allow us to do exactly what you suggest.

 

Bart, am I right and how should we proceed??

 

Cheers,

Chris, Council Members,

I'd like to share my comments on this Stategic Plan process (rather than content).

Unlike traditional organizations, ICANN strategic plan input shouldn't came mainly from staff and board, since issues and requirements to implement policies came from "lower levels" of the organization: The SO's, AC's, and committees.

That doesn't mean that the current exercise is useless, no, but if we just review what has come up, it won't be a full exercise and we will be reactive instead of propositive, we have to question what do we envisage for the next 3 years, what are our expectations in the ccTLDs arena, we have to create our OWN agenda, not following what the staff feels is better for us.

Unfortunately I'm not attending Cairo, and it's a shame that we receive such a short notice in such an important issue. Nevertheless, I think that we should try to at least provide with brainstorming ideas to Doug as additional input to their process, if not before Cairo, maybe after.

Oscar
