[[--Translated text (es -> en)--]] Subject: Re: Fwd: New Public Comment: Proposed Bylaws Changes Regarding Consideration of GAC Advice From: vanda@uol.com.br Dear The Board normally can not go against a decision of the GAC. But a rarely did and when makes explaining to the public must do so expressly; but internally on the board, you need only simple one to make this decision get wet. The proposed new ⅔ means placing the GAC at the same level control of the GNSO. Because a policy approved by the GNSO supermajority required two thirds of the Board for stand against such a decision. See the statutes Annex A, Section 9 (Bylaws) But has GNSO policy consultation public, is built open to all stakeholders. The same is not true with decisions of the GAC. Although any proposal internally GAC needs to be approved by 100% of the participating governments, have more recently seen Governments have gone into fields that really does not concern them without hear the community as a whole. As in many cases to get against a new TLD because one or two governments and demanded it other politely enter agreement. It is difficult to achieve 100%. One can understand that doing well (explaining the 2-3) the Board can stay freer to veto proposed controller without requiring extensive and sometimes complex explanations. I personally see this as a dangerous alternative. To me it is preferable to remain as is, with the need for explanations, but internally with a simple majority.

Dear / os,

This issue has just been opened to comments ALAC.

Please, if you will interest and comment from LACRALO Ask about us LACRALO ALAC representatives to vote for Certain way, take the opportunity to do so when the period of Comment Is open and has not been submitted to a vote at ALAC. Otherwise Becomes very difficult to fulfill the mandate of the region.

This theme, very briefly (you can read the attachments) implies A change in ICANN's Bylaws as suggested by The ATRT1.

Currently for the ICANN Board to depart from a recommendation By the GAC should make this decision with a simple majority (50% + 1), as well as explaining why you are doing it.

The proposed amendment implies that approved them, now Board would have to make the decision to depart from a recommendation of GAC with a qualified majority (two thirds of the votes of its members).

In my personal reading, this decision involves giving more weight to GAC recommendations would you make to the Board of ICANN, because for To deviate from these recommendations must attend the vote of a More members of the Board.

LACRALO What do you think? Should we approve the amendment (2/3 vote of Board members to deviate from recommendations GAC) or should Remain to date (50% +1 of the votes of its members)? What Political implications might this decision and what affectations May lead to Internet users, specifically in our Region?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
