Jeff, it's actually very proper for the GC and Tina, as the Registrar liaison to be invited to Council. This is long standing practice when we might discuss the contracts, and need an interpretation. The Security and Stability Advisory committee is intended to advise the Council, and other entities of ICANN. I think you are missing the point about having Steve on in that role. :-) 202-255-7348c mcade@att.com -----Original Message----- From: Neuman, Jeff [mailto:Jeff.Neuman@neustar.us] Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2003 8:49 AM To: Cade,Marilyn S - LGCRP; Bruce Tonkin; council@dnso.org Subject: RE: [council] Proposed agenda for GNSO Council meeting - Thursday 25 September 2003 In the interest of fairness, if we invite any non-GNSO Council member to this meeting to address VeriSign's service, I am sure that we would all benefit from requesting VeriSign's presence to describe their service, the reasons for its launch, along with possible benefits to the Internet community. Marilyn, I understand the purpose of inviting Steve, but can you please articulate why precisely you would like to invite the GC and Tina Dam. In addition, if we do invite them, perhaps we should provide them with a list of questions in advance of the meeting to prevent them feeling blindsided. Just my recommendation. Thanks.
