Dear PSO PC colleagues,

As agreed yesterday in our teleconference, a draft response from the PSO to
the latest report from the ICANN ERC has been kindly prepared by Richard
Hill.

He has asked me to circulate it for comments.

PROPOSED PSO PC STATEMENT:

The PSO PC has reviewed the sections on the proposed Technical Advisory
Committee (TAC) in the ICANN Evolution and Reform Committee (ERC) Second
Interim Implementation Report at:


http://www.icann.org/committees/evol-reform/second-implementation-report-02s

ep02.htm

The PSO PC thanks the ERC for its extensive work and the clear and
comprehensive report.  It generally supports the proposals of the ERC with
respect to TAC, with the exceptions noted below.

The PSO notes that IAB itself nominates people to represent IETF in other
bodies, so it is not appropriate to include both IETF and IAB as members of
TAC.

TAC members are representatives of their respective organizations and their
role is to act as doorways into the respective pools of expertise, to help
ICANN.  TAC should not be seen as a group of individual experts meeting
amongst each other to make technical decisions.

In that light, it is not clear why the membership of TAC should be expanded
to include members nominated by the NomCom.  Unless some particular reason
is given, the PSO PC proposes that the membership of TAC consist of two
representatives from each of the member organizations, which at this time
are ETSI, IETF, ITU, and W3C.

Kind regards,
Azucena
