<p class="MsoNormal">Colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">My apologies, but following the Christmas break I failed to progress this discussion.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I now attach a revised draft, still with a major outstanding issue in g. (page 2).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are two variants for g.ii. One simply reduces the previous paragraph to read “For ccTLDs, respect national sovereignty;” at the request of the GAC. The other is more closely based on, but shortens, the previous text: “For ccTLDs,
policy decisions may be made locally through nationally agreed processes in accordance with national laws and in compliance with IETF technical standards. Post transition of the IANA function nothing will be done by ICANN/IANA to impact the stable operation
of ccTLD Registries and gTLD Registries.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The draft contains a number of marked up edits from previous discussions that seem to have general agreement. For the text redlines:<o:p></o:p></p>

responsibility of the CCWG. For ccTLDs, it might mean that a third party might have a say over a national decision on a ccTLD. I flag this in case further thought is needed in the light of discussion over the last few days.<o:p></o:p></p>
