<h1><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-weight:normal">I hope this finds you well. As we are summarizing the responses to the public comment on
<span style="color:black">Short-Term Options to Adjust the Timeline for Specific Reviews, we noticed that the RrSG
<a href="https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/comments-specific-reviews-short-term-timeline-14may18/2018q3/000007.html">
suggested</a> with regard to ATRT3: “as a mechanism to ensure the ATRT3 Review proceeds in a timely (and therefore budget friendly) manner, the RrSG would further suggest that it be led by experts rather than the whole community.” We interpret this as a suggestion
to have the team chaired by a professional facilitator; did we understand that correctly?
