Actions:
- : The wording Assignees to modify the wording of this recommendation shall be modified.
...
Notes:
- :
- It seems to be a standard practice as it is reflected in the way that working groups and the Board conduct their work.
- It is uncertain whether all participants explicitly declare and update existing or potential conflicts-of-interests. This request doesn't seem to be included in the CCWG-Accountability Report.
- :
- The wording of this recommendation seems to be a bit over-reaching. We may not want to have all members to declare conflicts of interests during every single vote. We, however, expect members to update their conflicts of interests regularly.
- Re conflicts of interests updates, it seems that every community group has some type of rules (e.g. SOIs in GNSO, ALAC) that are appropriate to what they are doing.
- Conflict of interests issues will be dealt with by CCWG-Accountability WS2?
