Also, not enough that the use of adjectives cearly underlines the agenda here, the use of this kind of high-level English is not beneficial to the aim of ICANN to reach out to the world... "Scylla" and "Charybdis"? Who uses these words? Volker Am 03.02.2014 18:23, schrieb john@crediblecontext.com:
Jonathan, My coffee came through my nose this morning when I read the blueprint from the multistakeholder strategy panel. But, while language like this: "engaging people in meaningful and productive conversations about how to redesign the way ICANN runs itself is difficult because the conversation gets caught, on the one hand, between the scylla of broad generalities and geopolitics without regard to the specifics of ICANN’s day-to-day work, and the charybdis of mind-numbing technical detail on the other" is a bit overblown, it also works as mis-direction. There is no argument but that generalities, geopolitics and technical detail are a part of ICANN's life, but I would argue with "broad" and "mind-numbing." That kind of language tips the player's hand.
Further, by pegging effectiveness to the use of expert networks and linking legitimacy to crowdsourcing at each stage of decision making may only hint at the future shape of ICANN but it is clear in its view that the current version is no longer appetizing. I will likely think hard about that as I pack for the trip to Singapore. Cheers, Berard

Stage 2 Begins: Designing a 21st Century ICANN
*From:*The ICANN Strategy Panel on Multistakeholder Innovation & The GovLab [mailto:icannmsipanel@thegovlab.org] *Sent:* 31 January 2014 19:01 *To:* jrobinson@afilias.info *Subject:* Stage 2 Begins: Designing a 21st Century ICANN
Hello!
By engaging the stakeholders of the Internet (this really includes everyone!), the ICANN Strategy Panel on Multistakeholder Innovation (the MSI Panel <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=9e2...>) and The Governance Lab @ NYU (The GovLab <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=d1...>) are working to develop a set of concrete proposals for designing the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) – the public interest organization responsible for coordinating the Internet’s Domain Name System (DNS) – for the 21st Century.
We’re writing to request your participation in this important initiative and to help us spread the word!
Today launches /*Stage 2 *//–*Proposal Development *–**/of our online engagement effort aimed at getting *your*input into the Panel’s work in order to bring our ideas for evolving ICANN from principle to practice. The Panel has been specifically charged by ICANN’s President and CEO with:
·Proposing new models for international engagement, consensus-driven policymaking and institutional structures to support such enhanced functions; and
·Designing processes, tools and platforms that enable the global ICANN community to engage in these new forms of participatory decision-making.
To answer this charter, we launched a three-stage brainstorm initiative on November 19, 2013. We started with *Stage 1: Idea Generation. *The Panel and GovLab launched an *engagement platform <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=49575264ee&e=32eced4cfd>* asking the global public to share their ideas for what techniques, strategies, tools and platforms ICANN could look to and learn from to help transform itself into an /effective, legitimate and evolving/21st century global organization.
We now want to take these ideas closer to implementation during Stage 2. To do so, we’ve shared the *draft proposal blueprint * <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=b31cd77527&e=32eced4cfd>on the /GovLab Blog /organizing all of our ideas into 16 concrete proposals for ICANN, which we are *opening up to you for discussion. *We want your feedback, input, comments, questions, and suggestions on what we’ve collected. We’ve also published our first set of proposals, which include recommendations for ICANN to:
* Leverage expert networking <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=c8d...>; * Use crowdsourcing during all phases of decisionmaking <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=78c...>; and * Crowdsource oversight and develop standards to measure success <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=757...>.
*Feel free to provide feedback or reactions using comments or the line-by-line annotation tools enabled on the blog.*
You can also see all of these materials aggregated on the GovLab's ICANN project page, online /*HERE*/ <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=e606d3f2d6&e=32eced4cfd>*.*
*Help us spread the word!*
Do you know any people or organizations who would be interested in these proposal topics? *We’d love to get their feedback, too.*Consider doing any of the following:
·Forward this “Call To Action” to colleagues and organizations you know working in these areas who may have ideas or feedback to share on the blog.
·Share our proposal draft links (all accessible *here* <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=166e90c780&e=32eced4cfd>*)*, as widely as possible within your networks (e.g., via mailing lists and listservs). Feel free to link to these posts or repost on your website edited to fit your needs!
·Use social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter or Google+ to spread the word about this initiative (use the *#WeCANN *hashtag!).
·To inspire participation and learn how to contribute, watch and share a *video <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=adb2ce10df&e=32eced4cfd>* The GovLab made when we launched this brainstorm.
·Discuss the MSI Panel’s work and proposals in your own communities and share your comments and feedback with the us in the blog comments or at icannmsipanel@thegovlab.org <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=c78...>.
Toward the end of February – we will move into the last stage of this brainstorm – *Stage 3: Collaborative Drafting*. Using a *wiki <http://openinggovernment.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1a990feb5c&id=e89c0b7d3f&e=32eced4cfd>*, we will invite collaborative drafting on a first full draft of all proposals that the Panel will then submit to the ICANN CEO, Board and community. So stay tuned!
