<DIV>I have tried to incorporate the comments form the earlier draft text for
the message from the ICG Chairs to the CCWG chairs:</DIV>

<DIV>Dear CCWG Chairs,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>During our discussions in Dublin, the ICG recognized that the mission
statement in the ICANN Bylaws will be out of date as the CWG-Stewardship and
CCWG-Accountability proposals are implemented. This is especially
important since the mission statement is intended to become a fundamental
bylaw. We have no interest in telling ICANN what belongs in the mission
statement, and others have already made suggestions. For example, the IAB
offered some text in June 2015 as part of their response to the CCWG public
comment; see
https://www.iab.org/documents/correspondence-reports-documents/2015-2/iab-comments-on-ccwg-accountability-draft-report/.
>From the ICG point of view, the mission statement must accurately reflect the
ICANN organizational scope and structure with and without the PTI, otherwise it
will be and additional significant impediment to the separation of PTI and
ICANN. The ICG asks the CCWG make the ICANN mission statement current and
accurate before it becomes a fundamental bylaw.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for your consideration,</DIV>
<DIV>ICG Chairs</DIV>
