Hello All, I have edited the draft provided by Liz Williams as follows: - added direct quote of bylaw provision for reviews of internal structures of ICANN - added link to terms of reference used for the GNSO Council review in 2004 - added new section on "Purpose of the GNSO" with text extracted from Article X - added new section on "Outcome of GNSO Council review 2004" - with summaries and recommendations from the Patrick Sharry report - added material at the beginning of the existing section of scope to explicitly reference the overall requirements of the review with respect to the GNSO Council and GNSO Constituencies Note that before considering the detail of this review, I think it is important to get the context right - ie the GNSO's role and structure, as well as ensure we capture the outcomes of the 2004 GNSO Council review upfront. This 2006 GNSO review is effectively the next step in the GNSO review process that started in 2004 with respect to reviewing the constituencies of the GNSO, and also reviews what changes the GNSO Council has made to improve its effectiveness in light of the recommendations from the 2004 review. Regards, Bruce Tonkin
