    <p>Hi MARIKA,</p>
    <p>Thanks so much for that additional insight. I had thought they
      did follow each other as your email had not indicated they would
      be in separate parts of the report.  In this case I have revised
      the wording as follows. Also if we are using the term Board in one
      place we need to be consistent and so I deleted the word "Icann". 
      If we want to use state ICANN Board int he later half of the
      sentence than we should use it also in the earlier instance.  We
      should be consistent in the terms we are using<br>
    </p>
    <p><span style="color:black"><i>The CCWG agreed that appropriate
