<DIV><FONT size=2>I support the proposal to extend the timeline for the PDP of
WHOIS TF1 but the steps on the described TF1 timetable do not agree with the
PDP. </FONT><FONT size=2>As someone involved in the drafting of the PDP text our
understanding was that its timelines were guidelines that may need to be adapted
by intelligent users. But its steps should be followed.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>It is worth pointing out that the PDP article 7e tells us that
the TF has 50 days (40+5+5) to get a report out for public
comment. There is then 20+10 = 30 days to get a final report to Council. The
total time = 80 days. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>(It would be useful if the GNSO secretariat were to keep a
record of each ACTUAL timeline of all PDPs, so that we can include the
PDP deadlines in the GNSO review later this year. If we then need to
change the deadlines, we can do so).</FONT></DIV>
