This topic has been included on the agenda of the GNSO calls several times
without a serious exchange between councillors. There was no appetite to
either discuss the topic thoroughly or to say what people would like to see
improved. The reiterated inclusion on the agenda seemed fishy, but the
motion does come as a surprise considering people did not bother to
articulate their concerns. The motion mentions that the CCWG-IG does not
follow the life cycle established by the Principles for Cross Community
Working Groups. However, even if this would be the case, the framework for
CCWGs is new and any previous CCWGs should be given an opportunity to
adapt. I think we should force those that are backing the motion to express
their views clearly and give a time to the CCWG-IG to work on specific
improvements suggested by the GNSO. This is just basic fairness. The motion
should be withdrawn. If it is tabled, my vote would be against the motion.
Thanks
Marilia
