<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">We didn’t get to #7 but may I please ask a basic question: why is it there? It didn’t have any support in our discussions to date so I’m a bit confused as to
why the report says that it is “proposed to be further developed and considered by the GNSO Council for potential adoption in the near term”.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">I’m worried that putting out this idea of the “Creation of Cooperative Teams” as a potential “improvement” could suggest to the community that if you don’t/can’t/won’t
engage in a PDP, that’s OK as the most active/engaged/involved members will double their own hours by synthesising and explaining things to you. I’d rather pass the message that being a WG member comes with the personal responsibility to, well, do the “work”
part.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
