Dear Geoff, dear PSO PC colleagues, Thanks a lot for your draft whose words look to me somehow stronger and far beyond our discussion yesterday. I would prefer a softer response to ISO not precluding that the PSO is going to disappear in the process of the reorganization of ICANN. I would suggest something like this: "The PSO PC welcomes your application for membership within the PSO and would like to address the following points to you: 1.- We miss some important information in your application regarding the fulfillment of criteria 8 (a) (ii) of the PSO MoU. We kindly ask you to submit details about that. 2.- Considering the ongoing discussions taking place within ICANN about its own structure and the ones of the present Supporting Organizations, the PSO PC is in favour of postponing any decision about new membership into the PSO until further clarification emerges from the ongoing discussions. " I am willing to discuss any other wording but I would have problems to accept the initial draft from Geoff. Kind regards, Azucena Geoff Huston <gih@telstra.net>@pso.icann.org con fecha 10/04/2002 15:26:00 Por favor, responda a Geoff Huston <gih@telstra.net> Enviado por: owner-pso-pc@pso.icann.org Destinatarios: "Androuchko, Vladimir" <vladimir.androuchko@itu.int> CC: "pso-pc, ITU (MLIST)" <pso-pc@ties.itu.ch> Asunto: Re: ISO application for SDO membership of the PSO - DRAFT of part of the response Draft of response regarding application from ISO: --- We note that within the current process for ICANN evolution and reform the role of the Protocol Support Organization (PSO) and the associated Protocol Support Council is under review. One potential outcome of this review, as noted in discussion papers prepared by the ICANN President and CEO, is that the PSO ceases to exist in its current form. It would be premature to admit new members to this organization at this point in time given this level of uncertainty over the future of the PSO. Once ICANN itself has a more stable view of its intended role and associated operating model, and if the Protocol Support Organization exists in a format similar to today within this model, the IETF members of the PSO would then be happy to consider this application on its merits, according to the criteria outlined in the PSO MoU. --- (It is also requested that the applicant address the criteris of 8(a)(ii) of the PSO MoU) ___________________________________________________________________________ Este mensaje se dirige exclusivamente a su destinatario y puede contener información privilegiada o confidencial.
