All,
I'd like to amend the "Motion for JAS WG charter
extension" as follows:
Remove "Resolved 1. c) Establishing a framework
(for consideration etcetera,) including a possible recommendation for a separate
ICANN originated foundation, for managing any auction income, beyond costs. for
future rounds and ongoing assistance;"
Rationale:
First, I'm convinced the community and ICANN have to be
prepared how to manage any potential new gTLD auction
profit.
As usual in case profit is available one can expect many interested
community groups expressing their needs to share that profit where new
applicants are one group of it. In addition parts of the overall ICANN program
could also profit from that fund (e.g. outreach program, DNS
security etc.).
So my reservations to this topic being covered by the JAS group only are:
-
it is a too large area for the JAS and would go far beyond their originally
intended scope
-
there are lots of more urgent tasks for this WG as laid down in the new draft
charter. Handling the potential auction profit is of lower priority on the timescale .
-
as per definition the JAS view is applicant oriented that would cause an
imbalance
As I pointed out in former e-mails the JAS could express the new
applicants' general interest in taking part in the distribution of the potential
auction profit.
I suggest to initiate
discussion on council level how to cover this topic separately and
appropriately.
I'm in agreement with all other items in the
charter and would be happy if the
amendment could be accepted as
friendly .

Hi Wolf-Ulrich,
regarding your comment last time about JAS motion, I would like to know
what are the reasons for asking to remove the 1.c . I think that we should
find a better and constructive compromise.what do you think?
