[NCSG-EC] ICANN76 Board Questions/Topics

[Johan Helsingius]

Dear NCSG,

It is time to decide what we want to take up in our meeting with the
Board in Cancun. The Board has asked the SO/AC:s one question:

"The ICANN Board would like to explore how to combine the efficiencies 
of an agile approach to problem solving, like the Council’s small teams, 
with the need for accountability and transparency, to make progress on 
policy conversations. When would such an approach be most appropriate 
and how can we ensure that it does not circumvent required steps in a 
policy development process?"

What are our thoughts?

As to our questions to the board, here are our questions from the
previous meeting (as a reminder):

- What is the Board’s take on the phenomenon of ICANN recycling veterans
  for leadership positions. Does the Board think it’s beneficial for the
  community to have the usual suspects rotating between leadership roles
  of different stakeholder groups?  How do we fix this if we agree this
  is a problem? How does the Board imagine its role in assisting the
  community to recruit more new blood?

- Is there a possibility of rebalancing the NomCom?

- What efforts are channeled to keep the people in the community from
   volunteer fatigue?
