Hello everyone! Alain Berranger, NPOC:Greetings everyone! Julie Hedlund:The Vice Chair's term shall not be similarly limited, irrespective of whether the Vice Chair choses to stand for Chair in any one year. Mary Wong:Thanks, Julie - that's what I had in mind. Nathalie Peregrine:Jennifer Wolfe has joined the AC room Anne Aikman-Scalese: consider - should the vice chair choose to run for Chair, the Vice Chair's term limit shall not prohibit the Vice Chair from doing so. Nathalie Peregrine:Wolf Ulrich has joined the call Wolf Knoben:Hello together Avri Doria:I strongly object to eliminating the requirement for full consensus. Anne Aikman-Scalese:trying to achieve full consesus is much better Mary Wong:The tenth laggard was me :) Avri Doria:i did it so long ago, i don't remember. but i thnk i added comments to the survey itself Anne Aikman-Scalese: last time Avri raised an example of no working group having been formed and no WG was formed Julie Hedlund:I have the manual up Alain Berranger, NPOC:need to sign out, thanks Avri Doria:yes, it is the sing of consensus being necessary. toerhwsie we would have accepted something with a defect Avri Doria:ok, sign not sing. Anne Aikman-Scalese:agree with Avri Wolf Knoben:would be happy to hear you singing Anne Aikman-Scalese:I like "sing" Julie Hedlund:Note that because the changes to the GNSO Operating Procedures on suspention/termination of a PDP are substantive, once the SCI approves them they will need to go out for public comment Avri Doria:I think a correlate of Hard case makes bad law, is hard case makes dangerous precedent Mary Wong:@Ron, that's my "reward"? Pshaw :) Thomas Rickert:OK Avri Doria:sure Anne Aikman-Scalese: consider - If a motion is submitted and seconded which is identical to a motion previously defeated, then the Chair shall have discretion to allow vote o the identical motion IF (state conditions)?
