On the other hand, there is the definition of ?public interest? in the ICANN context, it?s relevance to the ICANN by-laws and the ongoing work of the accountability-CCWG, and how human rights fits into it. The discussion with Fadi in DC seemed promising to me on this, and certainly warrants some kind of follow up. I suggest that we also try to get on top of this prior to the Singapore meeting, and perhaps bring it up during the NCSG meeting with the ICANN board. If we have some solid suggestions by then, then perhaps we can propose to the board how to move forward with this. Anyone care to volunteer for this one?

What I talked about was starting a structured dialogue around the topic internally and with the larger community, including at a NCPH pre-meeting conference in BA, all of which could lead to some efforts to put relevant bits down on paper in an ordered fashion that could then inform further efforts etc.  This would have to be an iterative effort that takes on support over time (or doesn?t), methinks.

These conversations could start in Singy, but I don?t see with the time available how we?d have something baked prior that?d be of any value.   I?m guessing that people will be too overwhelmed by all that?s on our plates already, but if someone really motivated to prove this wrong, great.
