the constituency statements are incorporated into the issue reports drafted by staff. E.g., the Whois issue report contains either a summary or a verbatim incorporation of our position paper.

Does ICANN also publish all statements received from its internal 
constituencies? Actually, I should ask: delivering a formal statement to 
GNSO implies publication or should we explicitly ask for it? None of our 
statements are published in http://gnso.icann.org/issues/whois-privacy.
