Re: [meetings] Agenda Request - Review Working Group Charter Changes (#52)

AramZS,

As a representative of the Movement for an Open Web MOW I support the request made by James Rosewell.  In particular that : 
 
1) “Privacy” needs to be defined. If not defined with relation to a Privacy Law or laws there is a risk of inconsistency with that law or laws.  
2) FRAND principles are used as the basis for ensuring non-discrimination – whether with relation to patent licensing or preventing abuse of dominance or monopolization or attempts to monopolize markets.
3) J. Rosewell raised the issue of competition law compliance. It was met with a response that implied issue is something for lawyers and there are no lawyers willing to contribute. 

I would suggest that competition law compliance is for all. Advice on the law is for lawyers. 

I am a lawyer and would support the creation of a legal working group to help develop and advise on these points with representatives of any other organizations who would be willing to participate. I am aware that a number of other organizations involved in this discussion have lawyers who may be available.

With kind regards,

Tim Cowen
