Summary
Staff provided an update to the Board on the status of the proposed Stakeholder Group Charters, and the Board adopted the following resolution:
Whereas, the Board established a four-phase timetable intended to seat the newly structured GNSO Council by the ICANN meeting in Sydney, Australia;
Whereas, the Board acknowledges that the GNSO community has made an effort to comply with the timetable - including submission of proposed Stakeholder Group charters;
Whereas, most of these charters require revisions to ensure equitable participation and representation by new constituencies;
Resolved (2009-05-21-13), the Board directs the Structural Improvements Committee and ICANN Staff to make the necessary changes to the Stakeholder Group charters to make them consistent with the Board's GNSO Improvements Report and related Resolutions, and to post the revised charters, and an explanatory memorandum, for GNSO consultation and public comment later this month;
Resolved (2009-05-21-14) the Board will consider any comments and the Stakeholder Group charters for Board action at the ICANN Sydney meeting in June 2009.
All Board members present unanimously approved of these resolutions.
