<div><br></div><div>Year 2013 was great in the sense that we've managed to accomplish the task of the ATRT2 and to prepare a very important, very comprehensive and very substantial document. Finally, this year was great because we have had a chance to meet, to work together, and to become friends.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I would also like to express my personal and very special thanks</div><div><br></div><div>- to Brian, our wise and patient Chair, and to his hardworking and creative Vice-Chairs,</div><div>- to Alice, Charla, Larisa, and all other ICANN staff who supported us this year,</div>
<div>- to Steve, Larry, Heather and Fadi, who were (and ARE) our real friends and did their best for us,</div><div>- to all of you, my dear colleagues.</div><div><br></div><div>Happy New Year !!! (not to mention 'merry Christmas' that comes to Russia - as many things unfortunately do :) - much later than to the rest of the world...)</div>

<div style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:14px"><br>

<div style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Attached is the Final Report and Recommendations that I will send to the Board on our behalf. The final version of the Final Report and Recommendations reflects the input from "editors" received over the past
two weeks. A redlined version of the Final Report that reflects those edits is also attached. Thank you to all for their focus and effort to the end of the drafting process. Please note a few items: Lise and Joergen's December 28, 2013 email offered clarification
concerning the intent behind Recommendation 12.3 and benchmarking. Given my own experience at Public Interest Registry, clear benchmarking
<i style="font-size:14px">and </i>flexibility in organizational benchmarking exercises are both important factors that provide an organization appropriate measures as well as the ability to effectively staff and manage its operations. Steve, I hope the
email provides some guidance in response to your email request to Lise and Joergen when you address implementation issues. </div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><br>

<div style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"> Also, I added a statement to Appendix E concerning the One World Trust Report on metrics as follows: "<span style="font-family:'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-family:Calibri">Staff
provided a confidential copy of the One World Trust report to ATRT2 on December 17, 2013.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">
</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">The copy was provided on a confidential basis because it was a work in progress and because One World Trust and ICANN Staff were working out details with respect to the Report.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">
</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">Given the timing of the submission, the One World Trust report was not discussed in detail by ATRT2 and did not figure into the Final Report and Recommendations of ATRT2.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">
</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">As part of One World Trust’s data gathering at the outset of its work, the Chair of ATRT2 was interviewed along with other members of the Community.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">
</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">Also, a public session was held at the ICANN Buenos Aires meeting where One World Trust discussed certain aspects of its report in progress and engaged in Q&A with the Community.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">
</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">ATRT2 expects that ICANN Staff will make the One World Trust report available to the Community and that action to adopt metrics will be communicated and will serve as a basis for future review teams to measure ICANN’s
progress on implementation of Recommendations."</span><span style="font-family:Calibri">

<div style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-family:Calibri">Finally, thank you to everyone for their efforts on this important exercise. I want to recognize the
support provided by ICANN throughout the process led by Denise and her staff. As "newcomers" to ICANN AoC Reviews, Larisa and Charla provided excellent support with great attention to detail and Alice, who has more experience with the day-to-day workings
of AoC Review processes than anyone, provided seasoned guidance throughout. Much appreciation to the Work Stream Chairs, Olivier Crepin-Leblond, David Conrad, Michael Yakushev and Fiona Asonga for taking on the responsibility and time to develop the work
throughout the process. Thank you Avri, Lise and Alan for serving as Vice Chairs and guiding the work of ATRT2 throughout. Finally, </span></span>thanks to Paul Diaz from Public Interest Registry who did yeoman's work in managing the Draft Report and Final
Report to ensure a quality product was delivered. <span style="font-family:Calibri">This is how much of ICANN's work gets accomplished. </span></div>
