It may well be that as a result of the discussions with staff we have specific questions that we need/want the staff to respond to in writing. But we probably won't need written answers to all of the questions we plan to discuss, and we may ask them to respond to entirely different questions in writing. Given the changes underway at ICANN, and the work load that we are all aware of, I am anxious to use staff time as efficiently as possible. So, why not say that we may follow up with a request for written answers? </font></span></div> <div dir="ltr" align="left"><span class="450154822-27042010"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span> </div> <div dir="ltr" align="left"><span class="450154822-27042010"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2">Especially given the news about Doug's departure, I am surprised that Rod is not planning to participate in our discussion with staff.
