Also: What will "expressly enforceable" look like?

It wouldn't do anything directly, but it would mean that anyone could bring a lawsuit if ICANN or the RALO breached its contractual obligations. To that end, we should put into the MOU more of the things we've been insisting ICANN do for the at-large public.

:What "contractual obligations" will the RALO have? (Is the MOU a contract?) The world of ICANN is built around contracts rather than public law. In that environment, the only way to get anything done is to have an enforceable contract right (or to get your views endorsed by someone who does or by a sufficiently influential government). The MOU is our chance to establish contractual rights for the individual Internet user against ICANN. If we don't do that, the RALO will be as useless as every other mode of so-called public participation. : What resources will the RALO have to meet those obligations, and where will those resources come from? Will they be sufficient to meeting those obligations? The RALO's obligations are to disseminate information. I was merely mentioning them for completeness. --Wendy
