hi,

I submitted 4, one being an amplification of another:

Dealing with the incitement clause in MAPO Objections.  Since the NCSG is taking a postion against MAPO in general and these are comments on a clause within MAPO, I do not expect NCSG endorsement

1. http://forum.icann.org/lists/4gtld-procedures/msg00003.html - add disability, secual oritentation and gener expression to incitement clasue

2. http://forum.icann.org/lists/4gtld-procedures/msg00005.html - add political or other opinion to incitement clause

Dealing with the Objection procedure in general as a Denial of Service attack.  This could be endorsed.

3.  http://forum.icann.org/lists/4gtld-procedures/msg00004.html

Calculation of community status.  Not a political issue, but perhaps NCSG can endorse it based on the fact that many non commercial applicants could be asking for community priority in order to avoid facing a auction against deep corporate pocket.

4. http://forum.icann.org/lists/4gtld-contention/msg00006.html

I recommend that someone create a list of all of them and see if we have rough consensus of the PC.

Alternatively, someone could set up a doodle poll where each of the proposals can be voted for or against by the member of the policy committee - and I suppose anyone else that cares to voice their opinion. Those that get consensus of the PC get endorsement.

BTW the current membership of the Policy-Committee is:

2 members per Constieucy/Interst Group  - NCUC - Robin, Milton
1 observer per Candidate constituency/Interst-Group - Alex
The 6 council members - Bill, Debbie, Mary, Rafik, Rosemary, Wendy
NCSG-EC chair - Avri

The PC does not have a chair yet, and i am ineligible per the charter we approved.

As the comment period is over, I do not know how much time we have to get a endorsement comment in.

a.
