FYI a letter sent by Ron, chair of the SCI.
The original suggestion, mine was that we ask the g-council to make Wolf-Ulrich the liaison since he was both a member of the SCI and on the g-council.
I agree with the point that the SCI needs a liaison from the g-council for continuity. I think it can be any g-council member, even if that person is not already a member of the SCI.
I disagree with the notion of having an SCI member sit on the council as an observer. I beleive, that this is mostly a means to get the BC an extra seat on the council. But it may be more personally about Ron getting himself a seat.
As v-chair of the SCI, I do not wish to be observer on the g-council - listening to the audiocast is already enough to make me scream in frustration on a monthly basis.

> Following the recent change of leadership of the Standing Committee on Improvements Implementation (SCI), with the former Chair being a member of the GNSO Council, the SCI is now in a situation where neither the Chair or the Vice-Chair are members of the GNSO Council. At the same time, the SCI is responsible for reviewing and assessing the effective functioning of recommendations that came out of the last GNSO review.

> The SCI considers it important to have a direct line of communication with the GNSO Council as most of the issues under consideration are a result of GNSO Council requests and SCI recommendations are likely to impact the GNSO Council operations. As a result, the SCI would like to propose that the GNSO Council consider appointing a liaison to the SCI. From the SCI's perspective, such a liaison could be appointed in two different ways: (1) a 'traditional' liaison is appointed by the GNSO Council, i.e. a member of the GNSO Council is appointed to serve as the liaison to the SCI as described in the GNSO Working Groups; or (2) the Chair and/or Vice-Chair of the SCI serve as liaisons to the GNSO Council and are able to participate as observers in GNSO Council meetings either upon invitation (when issues of relevance are discussed) or as standing observers. Obviously it is the GNSO Council's prerogative to decide on the solution that is deemed most appropriate and effective.
