<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=091003618-24102007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>There are at least two avenues that are available for
comments in the GNSO: 1) via ICANN organizations (GNSO constituencies, ALAC,
GAC) and NomCom representatives, all of which are represented on the Council; 2)
public forums that we hold at ICANN regional meetings. The latter avenue
is an exception and not general practice. The former is the normal avenue
for input and one that should work particularly well for this meeting because
Constituency day as well as meetings by other groups will preceed our meeting on
the 31st. That would seem to me to allow for significant input for
anything we act on the 31st or 1st providing that each of us as representatives
ensure that we discuss issues with our respective constituencies, etc. on
Tuesday or sooner. The fact that we have working sessions on the weekend
should provide us even more information that we can share with our
constituencies and others on Tuesday and thereby faciliate seeking their
input.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Hi,
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>Kristina, I am sorry to hear you won't be with us on Thursday as the
conversations about comments received during the meeting will be as
important as any vote we take and it would have been good to have your
contributions to these discussions. Though I understand that real
life, families, and day jobs often get in the way.</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>Would it be possible for you to attend this meeting, (17-20 EST),
remotely?</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>I will try to find a way to fit this discussion on the Inter-Rgistrar
transfer policy into one of our earlier meetings, but am not sure
where. One idea is to extend the day on Saturday by an hour - not to
vote, but to have the initial substantive discussion.</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>So, would be people be willing to work an extra hour later on Saturday,
i.e. until 19 instead of 18, so that we can have the initial
discussion? This might allow us to hold the vote on
Wednesday because most of the discussion could have taken place.</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>BTW, as additional background, people should check out <A

<DIV></DIV>Hi,
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>This thread brings up the fact hat we did receive the Issue report
on 19 October and given our resolve to meet the time limits in the
by-laws, we should be discussing the issues report and voting on whether
to commence a PDP on the issues in the report no later then 3 Nov
2007.</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>Our schedule is already full for Wednesday and there is nothing on
that schedule I would feel comfortable either shortening the time on, or
moving to a later meeting. We do have a meeting scheduled for
Thursday 1400-1700 which is slated for an open discussion of input from
the meetings. I would like to spend 30 minutes of this 3 hour time
slot to discuss the issues report and decide on whether to initiate
the PDP process; i.e. to vote on two motions:</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>1. Whether to initiate a PDP process as recommended by Staff on
page 22 of the issues report:</DIV>

<DIV>2. Whether to create a Task Force for this purpose.</DIV>

<DIV>In the spirit of trying to met the timelines as outlined in the
by-laws, and as supported by the council in our last meting, I hope
there is not a strong objection to allowing this vote to occur as part
of the Thursday meeting. If there is strong objection, then
I believe we will need to vote on a specific delay as part of the
Wednesday meeting.</DIV>
