<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Analysis of the comments.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The comments refer to 3 categories:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">1. recommendations of the CWG<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">2. text of the Interim Report<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">3. Proposals and rationales with respect to use of 2-letter codes, 3-letter codes and full names of country and territory names.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The majority of those that commented on the recommendations, were in favour of closing the group, and having a consolidated effort after closing this group. The work of this group should continue, as an all-inclusive dialogue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">chartering organisations and broader group should have a further discussion on how they want to structure future work in this area.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">no suggestions to change the text itself. Suggestions were more on the use of 2 and 3-letter codes, than on the text of the recommendations themselves.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Jaap Akkerhuis suggested to clarify parts of the framed text in section 1. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">That suggested change will be included in the next version of this document<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Diverse set of alternatives or proposals on how to deal with the 2-letter codes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">See annex E. Next group should be informed of all the comments received. That is why we included Annex E. The substance of 2-letter codes is very diverse. Going over the debate will take quite some time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Subsequent procedures PDP was followed by Annebeth, however mentioned that the work tracks are very difficult to follow, since they cover so many different aspects. A smaller more pointed WG is needed for discussing geographic names. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Individual members should consider whether this could be a way forward.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Bart: the WG is not able to come up with a format of the next steps. There is no uniform recommendation, and it is beyond the scope of this WG. This is something for discussion by the chartering organisations and their respective communities on how to go forward.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
