All,

I have read the CCWG-Accountability Chairs’ statement and wonder if we should not also discuss a scenario for the situation where the CCWG-Accountability will be successful in reaching their first requirement:

“Enabling community empowerment over ICANN Board decisions with limited, strictly enumerated, last resort powers;"

As far as I understand, these last resort powers are meant to include the powers with regard to the IANA functions. I figure that if the community will already have the final say over the IANA functions through these last resort powers, that:

1. There will be no need for an external solution where the same community will be given the final say over the IANA functions;

2. There is no need for an MRT;

3. There might be a need for a CSC (maybe a CSC plus);

But maybe I am oversimplifying things here ?

Best,

Maarten
