Thanks Marita

That was my take on the changes. And I agree - I don’t see end user issues that need addressing

(the interest for Australia is in how you define territory for the bylaws.  In fact, Australia has 4 ’territories’ that Australia’s domain administrator auDA does not cover.  So a careful reading of the bylaws raises some issues - but again, nothing to do with ALAC)

As I understand it, they have come up with an way of getting around voting imbalance if there is more than one ccTLD member in a country/territory by having the affected parties choose a representative, now call an "emissary". It is a democratic way to resolve things. I don't see a major end-user issue here.

Folks

The ICANN Bylaws proposed amendments to Article 10 and Annex B are  out for submissions, which are due 2 March.

The item is listed for comment at the upcoming CPWG meeting and we need to decide to decide how to report to that meeting on whether we believe we should comment and then advise ALAC on whether to make a submission and, if so, what it should say.

I’ve had a read of the document (see link) - and do not believe that it raises issues for end users.  However, I would like to hear from you on whether ALAC should comment on the proposed amendments and if so, what should we say.  Please get back to me soon so that, if we need to develop a response, there will be time to convene a meeting for discussion, draft a response and then conduct a vote

Thanks

Holly
