Hi,
I don't accusing of bad intent (snarkiness) is appropriate just
because
someone disagrees. My questions where quite sincere and based on
recent
experience. And I have read the transcript.
I think this is bad idea and I think it sets a precedent for this
new
way of working that circumvents established bottom-up processes.
Fadi
keeps doing it, and we keep falling right into line.
I would have preferred for Jonathan, who I assume was also at the
meeting to have brought the issue to the council, and for the council to
have said stop, wait and listen.
I think that this letter just sets him up to say, ok, now the delay of
game is on you guys.

> Don’t understand the need for the snarkiness, but have a look at
the meeting transcript. Fadi wants to formally release this quickly
and start building the Community Coordination Group and Assembly so they can
meet before LA. He urged all the SOs and AC chairs to move into
alignment and support the proposal, but added that "If we received from
you enough input that says give us another week so we can do a little bit
more thinking together, by all means.” So Tony’s proposal
was to say we need more time as we are not yet in alignment. I think
his idea was to see if GNSO SG/C’s were in agreement on that and then
reach out to other SO ACs. That doesn’t make it a Council issue,
but if it offends you I suppose we can suggest he change the language and
reach out to other SO ACs now rather than later. Either way, the idea
was to give the community time to consider the thing.
