<p class="MsoNormal">As explained and
documented since ICANN 58 the CCWG-Accountability-WS2 will be publishing a
final integrated report of all recommendations for public comment but will only
be seeking comments on the resolution of any inconsistencies between the various
individual report recommendations. As such, the community, including all SOs
and ACs, are encouraged to provide any substantial comments they may have on
the recommendations in the individual reports during the public consultations
on these individual reports.<span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The CCWG-Accountability-WS2
would like to take this occasion to remind the community that these
recommendations will affect all parts of the ICANN community directly and as
such the community is strongly encouraged to take the time to consider these
and comment during the public comment period. It is also important to note that
although all comments are considered equally that it is just as important for
the community to show support for those recommendations they agree with.<span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
