here</a>). With 15 members and 4 participants responding, poll results indicate strong support for mechanism A, followed by mechanism B with the majority of members supporting that the CCWG should recommend two mechanisms. Section 4.7 of the Report and Recommendation

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="color:black">Seeing that there were no additional comments on the last revision circulated, the leadership team now considers the Final Report complete. The next step
in the process is for the Co-Chairs to make a designation of the level of consensus for the recommendations in the report (see
<a href="https://community.icann.org/display/CWGONGAP/CCWG+Charter" target="_blank">
<span style="color:black">charter</span></a> for details, an excerpt of which is included below).
<b>We believe that the CCWG supports the recommendations in this report by Consensus. Consensus is defined as “a position where a small minority disagrees, but most agree.” If you are a member of the CCWG and you disagree with this designation, please respond
to the email list no later than </b></span><b>21 May</b><b><span style="color:black"> at 23:59 UTC (14 days from today).</span></b><span style="color:black">
