<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Hi all: several Councilors
would like to introduce and pass this motion today, whilst we have several
different, significant and ongoing public comment periods. Therefore I
make the motion…</span></font></p>

the full attention of GNSO Councilors and many other GNSO
participants.</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Whereas, ICANN's typical comment
