BTW, I requested consideration of vote normalization. While I do not think there needs to be provisions for voting by the CCWG, if there are, I believe they need to be normalized. I prefer rough consensus. My tendency at this point is to vote against this charter for that reason. avri -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [ccwg-internet-governance] Fwd: Cross Community Working Group on Internet Governance proposed Charter Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2014 15:33:12 +0200 From: Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> Dear all, FYI, I have sent the charter V5 to SO/AC Chairs. With no consensus on normalisation of votes and an earlier discussion between SO & AC chairs about normalisation of votes not being the standard at the moment at ICANN -- in fact there is no standard.

The working group asks that this draft charter be considered by your Supporting Organisations and Advisory Committees for the official creation of the CCWG. As a reminder, this is a follow-up to the work that was cast aside whilst input to the NetMundial meeting was needed at short notice. The draft Charter is the result of discussion held in Singapore regarding the future of the working group as well as a Team of individuals from several SOs and AC drawing on their combined experience in drafting charters. It is hoped that the issue of chartering this WG can be added to the agenda of all SOs and ACs that will meet in London and that the WG will receive your feedback by the end of the ICANN meeting, on 26 June 2014. Of particular importance you might with to look at the votes and the (lack of) normalisation on a per SO/AC basis. The charter drafting team could not reach consensus on whether normalisation of votes was needed or not. We leave it to your community to provide its feedback on preference. For any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Rafik Dammak or myself, the current interim coordinators of the WG. Kind regards, Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond CCWG on Internet Governance Coordinator
