I just wanted to comment that while the re-charter is broadening the scope from human rights -> human rights and policy The re-charter text does *not* further broaden the scope of our activities beyond research into advocacy. Perhaps what Melinda is saying is that all along we have had an underlying tension between advocacy and research, and if so I would admit that as a self-described advocate at an advocacy organisation I am much less certain of particular outcomes in the IETF than I am in policy spaces. Speaking from my own experience, I do genuinely approach the research questions we raise in HRPC with curiosity and am deeply tuned into unresolved questions that we can build consensus around-- though as most will recall I do not believe the research outcomes of this RG need to attain consensus. That is all to say that HRPC does not feel to me that it is a vehicle for advocacy, or that it is trying, or trying and failing, to balance research with advocacy goals. If there's a way to reflect that in the charter, I think that we should. But I am not sure that this dynamic is really a function of the charter language more than it is a reflection on the folks and their expertise who have come to the RG. -Mallory -- Mallory Knodel CTO, Center for Democracy and Technology gpg fingerprint :: E3EB 63E0 65A3 B240 BCD9 B071 0C32 A271 BD3C C780
