<p class="MsoNormal">I have had time to go over it carefully and am somewhat shocked at the role of GAC in this plan.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Not only does the plan seem to be willing to accredit almost anyone, but it puts the GAC in a unilateral policy making role and also makes it the primary gatekeeper to Whois data.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">PLEASE ask the board about this when you meet with them. Ask if they understand the long term implications of revolutionizing the GAC’s role – are they making ICANN into an intergovernmental organization? Also ask them if they think the
GAC is able to do this in two months. Based on past behavior, it is doubtful whether GAC could come up with something in two years. Please ask the board why they are throwing so much responsibility onto an advisory entity.<o:p></o:p></p>
