[ALAC] Revised Rationale for Rejection of NCSG Reconsideration Request

[Alan Greenberg]

I call your attention to 
<http://www.icann.org/en/groups/board/governance/reconsideration/recommendation-ncsg-25jun13-en.pdf>http://www.icann.org/en/groups/board/governance/reconsideration/recommendation-ncsg-25jun13-en.pdf. 


I find this revised version far more palatable.

I particularly note:

"... we have no intention of our Recommendation being seen as against 
the on-going, community-wide discussion about policy and 
implementation. Further, it is important to note that this 
Recommendation should not be construed as discounting the importance 
of consulting with community members. Community consultation is at 
the heart of the multistakeholder model, and is critical whether the 
community is acting as a policy development body or during the 
implementation of policy."

This matches my belief that the current Policy vs Implementation 
discussion may be important, but whatever the dividing line, it does 
not remove the need for community involvement as long as decisions 
are being made which substantively affect us.
