9 Participants at start of call.

1. Welcome

Sebastien Bachollet: no exceptions.

2.     Review of plan for Hyderabad

Sebastien Bachollet: (Presentation of slides)

Herb Waye: Concerned this report only represents the views of a small number of people and not the community.

Sebastien Bachollet: Our work will be presented to the plenary of the CCWG-WS2 so this is not an issue. After it is accepted it will go for public comment to be accepted by the community.

Herb Waye: Willing to pay for part of the evaluation, have funds and will have to do one (there may be a conflict of interest with such funding).

Klaus: I am just thinking about if anybody outside the WG will actually understand the slides? Somehow I think not. We might need a more "understandable" version. Content is OK but who will understand and do we get the message across?

Avri Doria: i think there will be chance to explain t to assembled crowd.  In terms of staff accountability, we have included a reference to the necessity of coordinating with this group.

Chris LaHatte: the slide about consent of the Ombuds is an issue

Avri Doria: but the people listening will all be CCWG participants.

Herb Waye Ombuds: Did this idea of consent come about as a copy of the reconsideration new process in the bylaws I wonder?

Klaus: I think the cross group issue is critical now, we will need to have a mechanism in place to have the input from the other WG's

Bernard Turcotte: @Klaus - the co-chairs advised on the leadership call last week that they would focus on this to ensure synchronicity between sub-groups

Klaus: Great, good to know. Thanks

Karen Mulberry: I am working out the details for the Review that you have asked for

Cheryl Langdon-Orr: we should note that at least from the slide mentioning crossover matters the mention of Elections might be inflammatory for some CCWG Members.

Sebastien Bachollet: This was one of my suggestions for our work.

Herb Waye Ombuds: That idea is good Sébastien and it could be in the office but I would need to ask for funding for staff... The IOO could become a sort of ethics office

Sebastien Bachollet: the evaluation will probably impact our timetable.

Klaus: Ethics can never be a subject of an office but an community. Happy to discuss this at a face to face basis.

Herb Waye Ombuds: Agree Klaus, two separate hats but some organizations do it as part time functions.

Sébastien Bachollet: Shall we resume our calls immediately after Hyderabad. Next meeting on November 14 or 21? will check with staff AOB? (none). Adjourned.
