There is also time set aside for the discussion of other topics on Monday—once the full agenda is locked down we can review to understand what topics will require attention. It may also be possible/necessary to schedule some of these topics in parallel; however,
they would not conflict with PDP or Council sessions. The topics are consistent with those previously identified by the Council.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

on a number of topics that Councilors had identified. There were 12 topics identified in total and it is not clear at this time what topics will be selected. It is hoped that some of the PDP efforts will become topics identified for Cross Community Discussion
and in that event the GNSO Schedule will be adjusted accordingly.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
