Dear Amy, dear PSO PC colleagues,

Thanks a lot for making the minutes. There are some minor editorial changes

------------
1. Report on ICANN meeting Shanghai (Richard Hill)
http://www.icann.org/shanghai/

Richard said he made a presentation of the PSO Status Report
http://www.w3.org/2002/PSO/Talks/20021021/slide1-0.html in Shanghai but he
received no questions or comments.  He noted that the ICANN Board approved
the new bylaws [
http://www.icann.org/committees/evol-reform/fourth-supplemental-implementation-report-08dec02.htm
] effective in December.  The bylaws
http://www.icann.org/committees/evol-reform/proposed-transition-article-24nov02
.htm  called for abolishing the PSO  and replacing it with the Technical
Liaison Group (formerly referred to as the Technical Advisory Committee
http://www.icann.org/committees/evol-reform/second-supplemental-implementation-report-23oct02.htm
 ).

Richard noted that the issues  that had earlier concerned the PC, such as
order of rotation,  had been sorted out. Azucena asked if there was any
debate about rotation order. Richard said that no, the changes just
appeared in the report.

Amy asked about the time line. Richard said that the expectation was that
there would be a meeting [http://www.icann.org/amsterdam/]  on December
15th in which ICANN would approve the transition article which will make
the bylaws effective.  The PSO, as a body which was created by ICANN
bylaws, would then cease to exist.  Richard noted that, as was pointed out
in the previous teleconference, there were still some formal issues with
the MOU, and someone would need to follow through on the dissolution.
Azucena asked if there would be any action by ICANN.  Richard said that
during an ad hoc meeting Louis had said he'd think about it.

Azucena asked if there would be any delay in the appointment of the new COO
["COO" should be changed by "CEO"] it shouin January.  Richard said he was
not sure the new COO [CEO] would be appointed in January. He said the issue
was clearly within Louis' sphere but he wasn't sure if Louis would write a
letter on this issue after the December meeting or not.  He said Louis had
no comments on the TLG.  Brian noted that the latest report was quite an
improvement over the earlier drafts.

Amy asked how the PSO should move forward.  Richard noted that the PC could
wait and look for confirmation of the new bylaws from ICANN.  Brian noted
that there would have to be a time when the existing MOU is terminated and
new arrangements would come into place.  Richard said he anticipated this
would happen after the December.  Brian agreed and said the PC could be
facing new arrangements in January.   Azucena stated that there was no need
to arrange for a new teleconference unless the PC were contacted by ICANN.
Brian agreed and said that unless the group was asked to do something,
there is no need for another call.

Azucena asked if until the dissolution of the PSO,  the W3C would keep the
web site up and accessible; that she would prefer that the information was
kept intact.  Amy said she would ask Danny and Martin but noted the W3C has
a policy of not getting rid of web sites.  Richard noted that it is Tim
Berners-Lee's policy that web sites are kept up.

(Note: Martin replied that his position is that the PSO site should just
stay as it is at the W3C --  that ICANN need not take over the PSO site as
it would just create additional work.  He suggested that when the PSO is
formally dissolved, the PSO site could be updated with a text about the
dissolution, the date, etc.  He suggested that ICANN should create new web
pages and mailing lists for the TLG).

Brian noted that he was in favor of the TLG web site being supported by
ICANN.  Azucena agreed and proposed on behalf of IETF ["IETF" should be
changed by "ETSI"] that ICANN host the web site as opposed to the member of
the group.  Brian agreed that it made sense for ICANN to take over the
maintenance and hosting.

Amy asked if there were any further topics. Brian said that the PC wait and
see if any issues around the transition came up. Amy suggested that any new
issues could be raised on the mailing list and a call could be arranged if
needed.  She noted this might be the last call of the PSO and thanked the
PC.

As per the discussion, no upcoming teleconference was scheduled.
