No, I think this is an incorrect representation. The sub-group did not recommend that. Some members of the sub-group recommended this. I think the summary provided by Leon reflects the discussion we had. I was not on the last call and I have a problem with "internationally recognised" simply because there's no such thing, and I suspect this is well known. I agree and have suggested its deletion in the google doc
I know Paul Twomey has got a particular bias against the UN, which he expressed on the list, but are we, as ICANN, going to formally reject the UN Declaration on Human Rights here? I don't think anyone is suggesting that we should reject the UDHR.
I think it would be hubris to think we (ICANN) could design a better.
I don't think that debate is over. Agree there is a need for further discussion and encourage those interested to contribute to the google doc.

PS: As you know, 'due to having to work for a living' I missed the last call -- on a similar WG within my own constituency we had a guideline that no contentious changes were made without consensus, and that meant two calls minumum. I like to think that we are still in a discuss/debate phase.
