PDP process is certainly focused on GNSO interest in have a clear process.  The clear and transparent process in itself can contribute to user to have a better service, as such, will be in their best interest.  For my understanding, good business will be focused on their own profit but to have a good profit in a very competitive environment you shall provide a better service. 
 GNSO is much more focused on better services than ccNSO since in several countries there is no much competition and costs. For instance  can be higher so, not t all for the best interest of internet users. But t=not the competitive environment of gTLDs.

Thanks James.  This is a good reminder.  Just seeking a clarification on one point:

cid:image001.png@01D3436A.29F43160

 

Would you say that PDPs are characterized by individuals acting in the overall best interests of Internet users and the security and stability of the Internet  “irrespective of personal interests and the interests of the entity to which an individual might owe their appointment”?

 

Wouldn’t it be a bit strange if we expected representatives of  various entities that have a financial stake in the GNSO policy process to take positions and make contributions counter to the interests of their employers when participating in PDPs?   (Honestly interested in your candid thoughts on this.)

 

Thank you,

Anne

================

 

Dear Colleagues -

 

Several recent interactions on PDP working group calls and mailing lists have been referred to the GNSO Chairs (Heather, Donna, and I).  After review, our level of concern is such that we felt a refresher on ICANN's Expected Standards of Behavior was warranted.  A link to this document is provided below, but in general terms we are asking all participants in PDP working groups to elevate the level of discourse on calls and mailing lists to reflect a respectful and professional environment for our work.  

 

With this in mind, don’t attack fellow volunteers personally, or question their motives, or presume to know their positions without giving them a chance to present it.  Humor (especially sarcasm) doesn’t go over well in emails or AC chat sessions, and usually doesn’t translate at all.  Refrain from escalating or retaliating to negative comments.  And, above all, remember that our shared objective is not to “win” on any given issue, but to seek out and build upon areas of common understanding. 

 

The Expected Standards of Behavior can be found here:  https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/expected-standards-2012-05-15-en.  I know we’re all accustomed to just “click through” this text when joining a meeting, but I’m now asking everyone take a minute to two to review it again.

 

Thank you for your help with this matter.

 

J.
