[council] VI WG status report to GNSO Council

[Stéphane Van Gelder]

Councillors, please find below my status report for the VI WG.

Vertical Integration Policy Development Process (VI PDP) - Chairs Roberto Gaetano and Mikey O'Connor - Council Liaison - Stephane van Gelder – June 2, 2010

The working group has organised direct confrontations with the different proposal advocates with the aim of establishing consensus for a common proposal.

Now that DAGv4 has been published, the WG will examine the VI proposal it contains in order to ascertain possible effects on the group's timeline.

The WG has 3 meetings planned for Brussels. On Saturday June, 19, the WG will meet F2F for the first time and work on preparation for the WG co-chairs' meeting with the GNSO Council on Sunday June, 20. There will also be a VI workshop open to all on Wednesday June, 23.

In order to maximise its chances of reaching its objectives within the agreed-upon timeline, the WG has started a 2nd weekly conference call. Therefore, the WG is now meeting 3 times a week: 2 full group calls and one WG leaders call to organise the WG's weekly work.

Stéphane
