Stephen Deerhake: I concur with Byron. Very useful to have, and if the ECA ever is called into action, it will be very useful to be able to explain to the non-ICANN active ccTLD community what is going on...

Katrina: max number of members on a review team is 21. there are 7 SO/ACs. 3 members per SO/AC some communities decide not to participate, or appoint less people.

This is something we need to think about, whether we want this. 8) Follow-up ccNSO Council Accountability discussion. In Helsinki the results of the survey were shared. Main points of the discussion that followed: - validity of the survey - suggestions for improvement on accountability and transparency Example: Appointment of members to RZERC. Currently we have 17 councillors and only 9 voted after several reminders. This is part of our accountability. Call for nomination to ICANN Board seat 11. Seasonal discussion?

Proposed during the GRC WG session earlier this week: Also non-members of the GRC can contribute. Affiliation of councilor/board members/appointed members to review teams and WGs. Some concerns can be easily addressed, some require changes to the bylaws. What we will do: publish draft agenda on council wiki, and advertise it more actively on social media. Send out notification to mailing list too, so that the community knows which issues are going to be addressed. Will allow us to gather early inputs. Questions? Suggestions? Discussion during the accountability session in Hyderabad. Be prepared. Debbie: excellent comments you sent to the mailing list Katrina.
