Thanks for that additional insight Bruce. It's very useful. Stéphane Le 23 août 2010 à 09:53, Bruce Tonkin a écrit :
Hello Stéphane,
I am not really commenting on the method that the GNSO chooses to reach a position on a topic (e.g whether you choose to convene a group with GNSO members, or a group with wider ICANN participation).
My main message - was I think that the GNSO needs to respond on a matter that relates to GNSO policy.
ie GAC -> ICANN Board -> GNSO
Given the letter came from the GAC - it would certainly make sense for there to be a dialogue of some form between the GNSO and the GAC. Of course it is a pity this did not occur around 2006 when there were numerous briefings to the GAC on the proposed policy. A letter such as this should have been sent to the GNSO Council years before.
Regards, Bruce Tonkin
