[governance] Ad Hoc Working Group on IGC processes

[Ian Peter]

Hi Everyone,

 

At various times over the last 12 months suggestions have been raised on
this list as regards changes to the IGC charter. There do appear to be a few
small changes which would be useful, but for these to be accepted the Caucus
has to vote to approve. So a bit of process is involved to have these agreed
to and accepted, and it would be best to deal with all changes in one vote. 

 

As not everyone wants to be involved in process discussions, I invite those
interested to join an ad hoc working group to work on a consensus proposal
on recommended changes to the charter. Both Avri and McTim who have
expressed interest in these issues in the past have kindly agreed to
participate, and everyone interested is invited. You can join at
http://ipeverywhere.com/mailman/listinfo/igcharter_ipeverywhere.com .

 

The Terms of Reference for the Ad HocWorking Group are

 

1.	To develop a consensus proposal (if possible) on changes to the IGC
Charter and present the full proposal to the IGC on completion
2.	To attempt to complete its work by end October 2008 and disband
after presenting its findings to the Caucus
3.	During the development period, to bring back to the main IGC mailing
list any matters under discussion for which there is strong support but no
consensus, or on which the AHWG decides the input of the main list is
advisable.

 

Please if you are interested in these issues join the mailing list for the
Ad Hoc Working Group. . Your input will be very welcome!
