She notes that the PDP Manual does foresee the option to postpone consideration of a Final Issue Report, but notes that this should only be used sparingly and the Council should generally endeavour to vote on the initiation of a PDP within 90 calendar days of the receipt of the Final Issue Report. In addition, any decision to suspend consideration of the Final Issue Report is to be accompanied by a proposed timeline for further consideration, including a timeline for a vote on the initiation of the PDP. </div><div><br></div><div>The way forward the staff have suggested in the Final Issue Report and in the motion is to actually initiate the PDP, but delay the next step: forming a drafting team to develop the Charter, until the Expert Working Group (EWG) on gTLD Directory Services has completed its work, with a concrete point in time at which the status will be reviewed. This would also allow staff to start working on some of the data gathering required to help inform the PDP deliberations as well as enable a 'quick' start as no further intermediate votes would be required for the drafting team to start working on the charter once the EWG completes its work (or based on the direction of the GNSO Council at the end of May 2013). It will be up to the Council to decide how to proceed.</div><div><br></div><div>We hope that this information is helpful, but please let us know if we can provide additional information or clarification.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Julie</div><div><br></div></div></div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><div style="font-family:Calibri; font-size:11pt; text-align:left; color:black; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: #b5c4df 1pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 3pt"><span style="font-weight:bold">From: </span> Jonathan Robinson <<a href="mailto:jonathan.robinson@ipracon.com">jonathan.robinson@ipracon.com</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Date: </span> Sunday, March 31, 2013 5:24 AM<br><span style="font-weight:bold">To: </span> "'Ching Chiao [Registry.Asia]'" <<a href="mailto:chiao@REGISTRY.ASIA">chiao@REGISTRY.ASIA</a>>, Julie Hedlund <<a href="mailto:julie.hedlund@icann.org">julie.hedlund@icann.org</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Cc: </span> "<a href="mailto:council@gnso.icann.org">council@gnso.icann.org</a>" <<a href="mailto:council@gnso.icann.org">council@gnso.icann.org</a>>, Steve Sheng <<a href="mailto:steve.sheng@icann.org">steve.sheng@icann.org</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Subject: </span> RE: [council] Final Issue Report on Translation and Transliteration of Contact Information<br></div><div><br></div><div xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2004/12/omml" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 14 (filtered medium)"><style><!--
