Dear colleagues,
We have had this approach from a fellow GNSO Councillor.
Please share your views to help guide us. At the NCSG meeting
yesterday (MP3 recording circulated yesterday by Robin) we agreed to
raise a number of procedural concerns about this re-tabled motion, to
make the point we vigorously oppose it, but we did not agree to
request a deferral (a course of action I would not support).
Views?
Joy

Greetings NCSG colleagues --

I'm writing about tomorrow's scheduled IOC/RC vote.  I wanted to get
your temperature on this as I've been thinking about it for some time now.

I agree with you that the position we find ourselves in now was
arrived at through a bad process.  I'm not in favor of reconsidering
motions in general, and I hope the council is better educated on
procedure (I know I'm trying myself).  I'm concerned about the
council's image regarding efficiency and that certainly didn't help.
I'm hoping we can get this voted on tomorrow and get it behind us,
whether the result is yea or nay.  I'm concerned if someone tries to
defer, it will merely delay -- we've debated the issue pretty
thoroughly and I doubt any votes will change.

Any thoughts on this?

Mason
