Would this be acceptable or do you think we should vote on it as soon as tomorrow. </DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>In any case, as things currently stand in the bylaws we cannot do a working group as the main vehicle in a PDP, but need to either use a Committee of the Whole or a Task Force. We can create Working Groups for other purposes and as spins-off to investigate specific issues but until the by-laws are changed, not for PDP processes.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Please let me know if holding the vote on this motion until the open meeting in LA is ok.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>thanks</DIV><DIV>a.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><BR><DIV><DIV>On 9 okt 2007, at 02.40, Mike Rodenbaugh wrote:</DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV class="Section1"><P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:" arial","sans-serif";="" font-family:="" arial;="" font-size:="" 13.3333px;=""><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; ">I offer the following draft resolution, taken from the Final Outcomes Report of the ad hoc group:</SPAN><O:P style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "></O:P></SPAN></P><P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:" arial","sans-serif";="" font-family:="" arial;="" font-size:="" 13.3333px;=""><O:P style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "> </SPAN></O:P></SPAN></P><P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:" arial","sans-serif";="" font-family:="" arial;="" font-size:="" 13.3333px;=""><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; ">Whereas, the GNSO Council acknowledges the Final Outcomes Report of the ad hoc group on Domain Tasting, the Council hereby initiates a Policy Development Process, and commissions a duly constituted Working Group with the following Terms of Reference:</SPAN><O:P style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "></O:P></SPAN></P><P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:" arial","sans-serif";="" font-family:="" arial;="" font-size:="" 13.3333px;=""><O:P style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "> </SPAN></O:P></SPAN></P><P class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14.6667px; "><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:" arial","sans-serif";="" font-family:="" arial;="" font-size:="" 13.3333px;=""><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; ">1.
