Thank you, Emily.

Jeff and Cheryl, do we take from this document that all Recommendations are meant to be “MUST” and all Implementation Guidance is meant to be “SHOULD”?  (If so, don’t we have some recommendations which state something the ICANN Board should do (which cannot say MUST) cause neither we nor Council has that level of authority over the Board, which is bound by its own fiduciary duties.

 

Regarding the “No Agreement” section in the document linked below, could you please give us some examples on the call of the “very few” areas where the WG did not reach agreement?  In that definition, are you getting at the issue of “agreement” or the issue of “consensus”?

Thank you,

Anne

 

 

Dear all,

 

The Co-Chairs will reference one additional document on today’s call, available here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CYOruGqewTsu5ejL_zoom0ol6VA1xMLX2FXW2VAy4eI/edit?usp=sharing

 

This short document contains draft definitions of terms that are used in the draft Final Report sections, including Affirmation, Affirmation with modification, Recommendation, Implementation Guidance, and No Agreement. It also discusses use of the terms “should” and “must.”

 

Kind regards,

Emily
