> The GNSO Council Operations Work Team (GCOT) is requesting feedback  
> from you and your members with regards to the attached document.   
> While we are asking one question as noted below, all comments are  
> welcome as our goal is for broader community feedback at this  
> time.  In this light, our aim is for individual feedback vs. formal  
> Constituency statement.  Our request is to distribute to your  
> members.  All replies should be to Julie Hedlund at  
> julie.hedlund at icann.org, assisting our Work Team in an  
> administrative position.  Julie will then forward all comments  
> received to our Work Team discussion list.

> The Operating Steering Committee GNSO Operations Work Team (“Work  
> Team”) has been tasked with determining high-level operating  
> principles for the GNSO.  In line with this mandate, the Work Team  
> has been considering how to establish a stronger, more effective GNSO.
>
>
>
> This document describes a Generic Name Supporting Organization with  
> two separate, functional bodies (as opposed to our existing single  
> body known as the Policy Council), which we think may achieve the  
> goal stated above.
>
>
>
> THE WORK TEAM WOULD LIKE TO STRESS THAT THIS PROPOSAL SHOULD NOT BE  
> VIEWED AS A FIRM RECOMMENDATION.  NEITHER SHOULD IT BE ASSUMED THAT  
> THERE IS CONSENSUS FOR THIS APPROACH WITHIN THE WORK TEAM.

>
> We feel that it is appropriate to seek broader input from the ICANN  
> Community on an approach that would fundamentally change the GNSO  
> structure and working arrangements of the GNSO through the  
> separation of its core functions, i.e. creating separate bodies:  
> one for policy development management and one for the  
> administration of the SO.
>
>
>
> THEREFORE, TO BE CLEAR, THE WORK TEAM IS ASKING YOU ONE QUESTION ONLY:
>
>
>
> Do you think that the establishment of a new, additional body to  
> address specific responsibilities – as described herein – would  
> better serve the stakeholder groups that make up the GNSO, or not?
>
>
>
> The feedback received from the ICANN Community will establish the  
> way forward for the Work Team regarding our work on this high-level  
> GNSO operating principle. Any additional comments or questions you  
> may have are welcomed.

> We take this opportunity to thank you in advance for providing our
