No, you didn't. I should have changed the Subject, since the name thing is
getting tuned out by most panelists!
Again, could the panel address the orderly changeover from Joop to Sotiris,
and from icannatlarge.com to icannatlarge.org? Joop has repeatedly
requested relief, so I would hope hie welcomes this. Now that the vote is
past, the Web site will be more essential as an "entry point" to which out
outreach efforts can point our perspective new members.

|
| I have facilitated a mailing list votes@icannatlarge.com that is ready to
| receive your votes, aliasing to Joanna Lane, Bruce and Walter Schmidt as
| Polling officers.
| I have updated the announce list news@icannatlarge.com to now include all
| members and have given you the password to post to it.
|
| That is *all* the service you need from the webmaster.
| Two days of accusation and insinuation have already passed while
| you could
| have sent the ballot message right then when I told you that
| votes@icannatlarge.com was active and new@icannatlarge.com was
| ready for your message.
|
| Or is it that you don't want to take responsibility for sending out that
| ballot message?
|
| I am not against this vote at all. Apart from the unseemly
| hurry, when the
| debate on our Mission and Purpose is not yet closed, I favour
| it. I just do
| not want to take responsibility for sending a ballot message to
| which I have
| not seen at least 7 signatures attached.
|
| The only good that can come from this acerbic exchange, is that it helps
| defining the rights and duties of future webmasters and
| Supervisory Panel
| Chairs.
|
| I have had a stab at this before and instead of seeing this self-created
| stand-off theatre as a "huge problem" I propose here a solution,
| to be inserted
| (when approved) in our Bylaws.
|
| Webmaster responsibilities.
|
| 1. The webmaster is responsible for the technical functioning of
| the website
| in all respects.
| 2. The webmaster is responsible for the databases built by the
| membership.
| He will guard the members' privacy, unless compelled to share
| data with their
| elected Panel when so instructed by majority vote.
| He will provide regular data backup to ICANN's At Large elected
| directors,
| to be held by them in escrow, to ensure the data's survival. If
| ICANN has no
| longer At Large elected directors, the backup will be sent to an elected
| Trustee.
| 3. The webmaster is responsible to keep the website up-to-date.
| 4. the webmaster keeps a public record of the time he spends on webmaster
| duties.
|
| Discretion of Webmaster
|
| 5. the webmaster may update non controversial text ,design or code on his
| own initiative
| 6. the webmaster may appoint a Forum Administrator to manage all
| aspects of
| the website community Forum.
| (the Panel may of course appoint one too)
|
| limitation of webmaster discretion
|
| 7. the webmaster must refrain from implementing any change or update that
| may be controversial among the membership and must at all time
| first seek Panel
| majority approval for such changes.
|
| 8. the webmaster will immediately upon being ordered to do so by formal
| majority of the Supervisory Panel:
| a. remove text or design elements
| b. change text, links or make other simple changes.
|
| I submit these rules to the Panel for their approval.
