Summary
Board approved a document posting deadline for all ICANN international public meetings, directed that an operational policy on this be posted for public comment, and ordered that its implementation be reviewed by the PPC.
Text
Whereas the Public Participation Committee (PPC) was charged at the May 2009 Board meeting with producing and managing an operational policy for the publication of documents intended for use at ICANN's international public meetings, starting with the Seoul meeting in October 2009;
Whereas the Committee has reviewed the document deadline temporary policy which was set up for the ICANN meeting in Sydney, and has held public and private meetings to discuss the impact and results of that policy;
Whereas the Committee remains aware that the introduction of a document deadline policy will have a significant impact on the organization and its pattern of work and so will need to be introduced with sensitivity and creative compromise;
It is hereby resolved (2009.07.30.11) that ICANN introduce a single 15-working-day document deadline for all ICANN international public meetings, from this point forward. That deadline will include all documentation for that meeting, as well as meeting agendas.
It is also hereby resolved (2009.07.30.12) that an operational policy providing fuller details of the document deadline be published for public comment for a period of 30 days and that its implementation be monitored by the PPC, who should report back to the Board with any suggested refinements, as needed.
