Chuck -----Original Message----- From: owner-council@gnso.icann.org [mailto:owner-council@gnso.icann.org] On Behalf Of William Drake Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 2010 10:21 AM To: GNSO Council List Cc: Margie Milam Subject: [council] AoC RT Endorsement Process Document and Motion Hello everyone, As mentioned on the last Council call, the drafting team has reached closure on a simplified, fairly apolitical proposed procedure for the routine handling of review team endorsements going forward. Hopefully this removes from the process any guesswork and undue stress. Please see the attached document and distribute it to your SGs for discussion and any feedback with an eye toward adoption on the next Council call. Re: the latter, I hereby make the following motion (thanks Margie for drafting); the mentioned link will be added later. Thanks, Bill MOTION TO APPROVE AOC ENDORSMENT PROCESS: Whereas, in furtherance of ICANN's responsibilities under the Affirmation of Commitment (AOC), the GNSO Council formed a drafting team to develop a process to endorse volunteers to serve on the each of the AOC review teams; Whereas, the AOC Review Requirements Drafting team (AOC-RR Drafting Team) has proposed a process to facilitate such GNSO Council endorsements; Whereas, the GNSO Council desires to adopt the AOC-RR Drafting Team proposed process for all future AOC review team selections; NOW THEREFORE, BE IT: Resolved, that the GNSO Council hereby approves the Endorsement Process described in the attached document <insert link to document>; Resolved further, that the GNSO Council should implement the Endorsement Process for all future AOC review team selections, including the "WHOIS Policy" and the "Security, Stability, and Resiliency of the DNS" Review Teams; and RESOLVED FURTHER, ICANN Staff is requested to post and distribute the Endorsement Process as widely as possible to all GNSO related groups in an effort to inform qualified applicants of the important work of the "WHOIS Policy" and "Security, Stability and Resiliency of the DNS" review teams.
