The draft "WRT Guidelines" propose: - The Chair – and any Vice-Chair(s) – must play a neutral role by refraining from pushing a specific agenda, ensuring fair treatment for all legitimate views and guaranteeing objectivity in identifying areas of agreement. I roughly agree, with the comment that this definition might disable the Chair as full member of the team. I think it takes a very well-managed person to remain fully neutral while at the same time participating in the discussion of a topic and expressing the personal point of view. We may want to consider a hand-over from the Chair to a Co-Chair / Vice-Chair for the duration of a discussion in which the acting Chair has a strong point of view to contribute. Regarding notes, reports, documentation and clerical ascpects, do we expect to make use of a Secretariat Role, either provided by ICANN or from within the team members? Regards, Wilfried.
