[council] Action Items: GNSO Council meeting 13 July 2017

Mon Aug 7 03:18:38 UTC 2017

Dear colleagues,

Just following up on the point made by James on 18 July about whether or
not to put the CWG-UCTN Final Report on our August agenda, or hold it to
September's agenda. FYI the following has taken place since 18 July:

   - ccNSO Council has voted on and approved the CWG-UCTN Final Report
   - SubPro is in the process of creating Work Track 5 on geo names

As a co-chair of this CWG, my personal view is that the GNSO can endorse
the Final Report, but should make comments in the motion pointing to SubPro
and the new WT5. In my view, the timing of such a motion (and how
forcefully we make our comments about WT5) is dependent upon SubPro - let's
put this on Council's agenda at a time most helpful to SubPro and WT5. With
that in mind, I suggest we take some guidance from Jeff and Avri here.

I note that our document deadline for August meeting is in roughly 7 days,
so we need time to pull together a motion if this is going onto the August
agenda.

Best wishes,

Heather
