[governance] ICANN is holding a request for comments on its performance

[Kieren McCarthy]

I am very encouraged to see such interest shown in ICANN's processes. 

I fear that amid the many comments though, the most important element may
have been missed, so this a quick notice to let people know that ICANN has
posted a request for comments on its performance.

The RFC comprises a series of questions that cover recent and future changes
within ICANN and everyone in the Internet community is invited and
encouraged to send a response.

The formal announcement and questions can be found here:
http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-08may07.htm

There is also a blog post to which people are able to add comments, here:
http://blog.icann.org/?p=125

And an interactive page on ICANN's Public Participation website is also
available for the community to share their thoughts with one another:
http://public.icann.org/issues/performance


The deadline for comments is 5 June 2007 - so you have three weeks to
respond. Comments should be sent to performance-2007 at icann.org, and all
comments received can be found at
http://forum.icann.org/lists/performance-2007/ 

The comments will form part of an internal ICANN review, and the general
manager of public participation has offered to hold a session on the
responses at the upcoming meeting in Puerto Rico at the end of June.

Thanks


Kieren McCarthy
General manager of public participation, ICANN
