Cheryl Langdon-Orr 2: True Avri that RISK to reputation is important thus the public nature of the S/D/C of I
Heidi Ullrich: Didier, Adigo has muted your line due to the noise.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr 2: Forbthevrecord I ALWAYS prefer Material Interests AND 'reasonably ' "family"partners etc., And yes I wondered it the Review of conflict that could be an independent "gate
Cheryl Langdon-Orr 2: hand y
Cheryl Langdon-Orr 2: up
avri: are there specofic recommendations to the lagauge:
avri: Members of the gTLD RG will be asked to make a declaration concerning the fact that have no Conflicts of Interest (COI). This will be defined as having no involvement, within the past 3 years, current or anticipated, in any way with a New gTLD Applicant or any other party that is involved in any manner whatsoever with an applicant or the proposed registry. Members of the gTLD RG will also be asked to guarantee that they will not take any sort of job or advisory position with any applicant or new Registry for at least 1 year after the end of the New gTLD Objection period; i.e. if the Objection Period ends in October 2012, they would promise to not join, in any role whatsoever, any new registry or company with a relationship to a new registry until after October 2013. These statements will be kept on line as part of the history of the gTLD RG.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond: If someone ison the SARP can they also beon the RG?
Joly MacFie: I worry about hard COI rules having a chilling effect on participation generally
Evan Leibovitch: I still think asking for a "guarantee" of intent is impractical and unenforceable. outside that I'm comfortble with avri's wording.
avri: so how would you reword that sentence?
Evan Leibovitch: I'd personally just eliminate it. I understand its intent but think that almost any wording constitutes "thought police" visions. I'm drawing a blank coming up myself with a reasonable limit on a (currently) volunteer role.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr 2: YES Alan
Cheryl Langdon-Orr 2: Alan I would argue that the deliberations and outcomes be 'able to be LATER published (this later also allows for "discretion")
Alan Greenberg: @avri, I can easily live with making such conflicts (ones deemed to be unimportant) be made public.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr 2: but even "decret' records can be called for and they MUST BE RARE like hens teeth rare
Cheryl Langdon-Orr 2: hand up
Rudi Vansnick: i agree with Alan
Alan Greenberg: How many time zones does APRALO represent? Must be close to 10 hours!
Rudi Vansnick: no objection
