Re: [ga] Motion asking for GA poll on rebid of ICANN contract

To conduct a poll does not require the permission of anyone. Neither, under Best Practices,
is it possible to "make up rules as they go along." No ICANN arcanities are involved.
The process is under the "control" of those interested enough to get involved. What comes
out of all that are one or more thoroughly discussed Motions that are then to be formally
debated, and whichever one survives, if any, is then sought to be entered into the formal
DNSO Secretariat procedure through the ga Chair..

Thomas, you have already expressed views on the issue, which is fine.  Now
what exactly does one have to do to get a vote out of the GA?      I made a
motion.....   do I have to make lots of motions?   Is there a form the
motion has to follow?   Is there some special acarne rule I have to follow
to ask this body to express its views on a pretty simple issue?   You
offered to help....  ok.  Help me do this is a way that gets us to an
anctual vote on rebidding the DOC agreements with ICANN.   Is there some
magic number of seconds I need to get a vote?  Is everyone just making this
up as they go along?

It will give the GA members a voice.  I don't care what your
personal views are on the merits of the proposal I would like
voted on.
Likewise, I don't care what your personal views are on what the GA
should vote on.

That said, could we please return to dialogue mode, and try to get a
motion onto the table which would enable the GA to make a
_constructive_ contribution?  If you want help and suggestions for
this, please refer to my original reply to your motion.  If you
don't want that help, that's your problem.
