Just FYI, the 4th member is actually Maarten Simon from the ccNSO (he's Senior Legal & Policy Director with SIDN, the ccTLD manager for .NL (Netherlands)). It only seems like Chuck is everywhere -- even when he's out on vacation. Greg On Tue, Feb 24, 2015 at 11:29 PM, Milton L Mueller <mueller@syr.edu> wrote:
The ALAC asked to have at least one of its representatives on the Committee and this was refused.
MM: Did you ask openly? I don’t recall seeing it, but I could easily have missed it. I would support adding Kieren and someone from ALAC, if only as observers.
We abided by this decision from the Chairs because ultimately: 1. we did not want to be a factor that was going to slow down the process. The Client Committee needs to act swiftly & professionally with the Legal Advice 2. we wish to show trust in the current Client Committee of 4 people.
I emphasize point 2 in particular. Whilst transparency is very important, "trust" is important too.
MM: I have great trust in Jonathan, Greg, Lise and Chuck. I also belive in transparency and procedural safeguards. I know that all of them, especially the CWG co-chairs, have about a hundred others things to attend to and may need some help. I don’t think it slows things down if we add a couple of people.
