Please, make your comments on this draft resolution.

Since the first proposal, there have been encouragements and
sketipcism which we need to make this draft resolution more
malleable.

                                    (Draft) Resolution for
                Non-Commercial Supporting Organization


The current Non-Commercial Domain Names Holders Constituency
of Domain Names Supporting Organization has been recognized by
the ICANN Board in Santiago in August ICANN meeting, 2000.

Since then, non-commercial domain names holders constituency
has been encountering an endless challenge in the DNSO. It is always
outnumbered in DNSO decision-making process by the majority votes.

It turned out that it is almost impossible for Non-commercial domain
name holders constituency to address its concerns which has reflected
underrepresented groups such as small businesses world-wide,
developing countries,

NCDNHC members' interests are too diverse being mixed in this same
group under the name of non-commercial domain names holders
constituency.: There are education and research organizations, civil
society groups, consumer groups, activist groups for citizens, non-
commercial purpose lobbyist groups etc..

As WG-Review and At-Large Study Committee recognized in their report,
DNSO has been suffering from its imbalanced structure from its start,
five commercial-oriented constituencies, Registrar, ISP, IP, Business,
gTLD constituency, versus one non-commercial oneand ccTLD [note1]

Non-Commercial Domain Name Holders Constituency of the DNSO
hereby declares its withdrawl from DNSO in Montevideo and its new
formation of Non-Commercial Supporting Organization, NCSO
supporting ccSO.

Non-Commercial Supporting Organization shall be formed in
conjunction with ccSO in near future and this movement should not
be confused with At-Large structure within ICANN.

Therefore, ICANN can be restructured as follows:

Half of Structure:

        ASO(Address Supporting Organization),
        CSO(Commercial Supporting Organization): Previous DNSO
        ccSO(ccTLD Supporting Organization)
        NCSO(Non-Commercial Supporting Organization)
        PSO(Protocol Supporting Organization)

The Half of Structure

        At-Large Members:

[Note1] ccTLD is difficult to categorize whether it is commercial or
non-commercial in a simple way.
