Dear Members: This is the final day for posting motions to amend (and endorsements to said motions to amend) the Budget motion. My motion to limit access to the list of members who request forgiveness from paying US$750/year has not received the necessary endorsement. Our Chair has suggested limiting access to the four elected officers plus our paid Secretariat, said Secretariat being a full time employee of a consultant to a paid RC Member Registrar. I am not comfortable having that information in the hands of other than an elected officer. There those who would want to shame the "forgiven" Member and/or make them feel like a second class citizen. I am willing to revise my notion to the following: Proposed Amendment to Budget Motion: Moved that only the Chair, CTO, Treasurer and Secretary be in possession of the amount of dues paid by each member of the Registrar Constituency. The dollar value of dues paid must not be divulged to any other member or to any agency or authority outside the Registrar Constituency, not to GNSO, and not to ICANN. Total confidentiality is to be assured. end quote: I await any other proposed amendments. And I seem an endorsement to this amendment. Regards, BobC
