<p class="MsoNormal">I’m writing you in my capacity as interim
co-chair of the Next Generation gTLD RDS to replace Whois PDP
Working Group. In light of the changed circumstances
impacting the working group, the leadership team is of the
unanimous opinion that the working group should be terminated
in accordance with article 15 in Annex 2 of the GNSO operating
procedures. Therefore, following those procedures, the
leadership team is delivering to you as GNSO council liaison
the attached Termination Summary on behalf of the working
group for consideration by the GNSO council.<o:p></o:p></p>
