[article] ICANN would reject call for =?UTF-8?Q?=E2=80=9Cdiversity=E2=80=9D_?=office

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi Ayden,

Thanks for sharing this.
The diversity subgroup has its last call in Thursday. We covered all
comments received and we discussed the idea of office of diversity. It
didn't have consensus during our initial deliberations for the
recommendations and so we put it as question/note during the last public
comment to seek community input on the matter. That predates the bduget
discussion.

With our analysis during the last call, we reached the conclusion that we
didn't get an overwhelming support from community to add recommendtion
about an office of diversity and so it was not included as recommendtion
(it was not a recommendtion from the beginning).
The office diversity is an implementation and quite specific so we focused
on our recommendations on requirements and functions instead and left the
details to implementation phase.

As co-rapporteur of that subgroup, I am happy that we finished our work and
the recommendations are going to CCWG

Best,

Rafik
