<p class="MsoNormal">Nominally, I have been put on the bylaws coordination list as an ICG member providing liaison and oversight. However, someone (not sure who, probably ICANN staff) is taking a very restrictive approach to this bylaws drafting process. As
far as I can tell, I have no posting privileges on the list. Moreover, I cannot even see the archives of the list and apparently no one else can without a password. I have requested a password to enable viewing the archives several days ago and there has been
no response. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The posting restrictions are simply absurdly inefficient. The drafting group needs feedback and what sense does it make to prevent list participants from immediately commenting upon drafts or questions sent to the list?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I do not think this is appropriate. Can our chairs make some inquiries and get these restrictions removed?
