The month of January has ended with no action. No action is in sight.
There have been motions and consensus on this list that immediate Polling
of the membership on the issues that are important for our future direction
is desired.
James Khan and Richard Henderson have helped and encouraged me in setting
up the members' questions in the Polling Booth. Some questions are my own.
These members and myself are not an elected Polling Commission and the
results will therefore not be "official" .
Nevertheless, they should provide welcome guidance information for both
the Panel and us members.
the Supervisory panel has let us down.
Vittorio, if you wish to help me make sure that everybody gets the chance
to vote, then please email me privately the email addresses of the
latest members that have signed up after I re-directed all signup to your
database (20 or so?) , so that the Booth can send them their unique voter
login too.
I would like to ask for your endorsement of Bruce, Jefsey, Walter Schmidt
and Jan Siren as watchers over the Polling process.
All members will receive a Polling Notice with their unique password over
the weekend .
If I can manage to start the Polling today, the Poll will be closed on
February 7.

pre-Nomination process for ICANN AtLarge

Richard Henderson's Questions
Can all members poll their fellow members?
Inside or outside ICANN?
regular polls or not?
Trusting ICANN's At Large structuring
To RALO or not to RALO
Experimenting with full transparency, some of the results of the
questions will be visible immediately as the Polling progresses.
If these Polls can proceed reasonably successfully, I would propose that an
election for a Polling Commission with a twelve month mandate be held later
in February.
I agree with Jefsey that in a direct democracy the most important part to
be controlled by process is the formulation of Polling questions. They
must grow out of constructive debate among a few trusted elected members.
The Panel has not been elected for this task and no single person can be
expected to be both comprehensive and unbiased all on his/her own.
