Instilling Transparency in WS-1

[Tamir Israel]

Colleagues,

As has been discussed here before, there has been an effort by a number
of NCSG members (and others) to enhance ICANN's transparency mechanisms,
including its DIDP (cf:
https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A1=ind1510&L=NCSG-DISCUSS#6).

Initially, this was slated to be addressed in work stream 2. However, a
change regarding how ICANN entities will be designated has led to a
transparency gap and specifically into an enforcement gap under
California law. This has opened a window to begin addressing some of our
transparency issues in WS-1.

Brett and others have put together a statement on what should go into
this enhanced transparency initiative, and I was wondering if a) there's
any more NCSG input and b) if there's a chance to make this an NCSG
statement:

Best,
