Hi all, Following up with the discussion we had, I would like to refer our future discussion to the GNSO Working Group Guidelines <http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-1-gnso-wg-guidelines-08apr11-en.pdf> . To be consistent with those guidelines, I tend to prefer that we adopt the following leadership positions : - A Chair (1) : duties defined in point 2.2.1 of the WG Guidelines - A Vice-Chair (s) : duties defined in point 2.2.2 of the same guidelines. The question will be how many Vice-Chair we will elect ? In the presentation that Steve made tonight, I understood that 38 issues were identified and grouped in 5 groups. I think it will be good to have 5 Vice-Chairs who in the same time can be each one of them the Chair of one Sub-Groups that will be covering one of those 5 group of issues. For the record, I would like to support Steven Coates nomination for a Vice-Chair role. Khaled Koubaa Twitter : @koubaak <https://twitter.com/koubaak> LinkedIn : http://lnked.in/kkoubaa
