[ncdnhc-discuss] Last Call: Is there a third consensus ?

[Jefsey Morfin]

Jefsey Morfin:
A solution can only result from a consensus of the Internet Community and 
it needs it to succeed.

Vint Cerf:
consensus would surely help I think.


This is a last and public call to opponents to this idea. Anyone thinking 
that the ICANN evolution may either succeed without being supported by a 
World Internet Community consensus or will fail anyway, please speak-up now.

Silence will mean that there is a consensus about the need for a consensus 
on the solution which will be proposed.

1. any solution not supported by a consensus will not be binding nor 
legitimate for many
2. any group or interest trying to propose a solution outside of a 
consensual process would be legitimately regarded as a disrupter and would 
not be considered in any consensus oriented debate and count.

If no one opposes, I will set-up a site at http://wecann.com to establish 
links to the different ICANN evolution propositions, a working mailing list 
between their authors to permit them to discuss that site so their works 
are presented in the best, fairest and most neutral and efficient manner.

I also call on anyone who could provide:
- free hosting
- free simple polling - not voting - service
- free secretariat (for comparative analysis work, documentation links, etc..)
- free mailing lists for the authors - and may be working groups
- funding for a more structured effort
for that site (my resources are limited, and I will myself propose a solution).

The target is to provide an information and comment capacity to the 
authors, to the ICANN community (BoD, Councils, Staff, @large, SOs, GAC, 
Constituencies) and also to the interested watchers and stakeholders 
(Congresses, Consumer Organizations, Govs, Press, Internet Participants 
through the world). It is only to be a serious, non biased, smart front 
panel to understand and follow and help the concensus process.

The decision of the AU Gov. not to subsidize anymore the GAC, meaning the 
need for a sucessor, shows the urgency to get real: even if Govs were a 
solution, it is not that simple in real international life.
