<p class="MsoNormal">Regarding Richard's claim about the final proposal not having gone out for public comment, in our view what he suggests could yield a process that never ends, given that further comments can always be provided whenever a document is put
out for public comment. Thus requiring a “final” document to be put out for public comment is an unreasonable requirement for a process intended to terminate. Furthermore, there is a public comment period on the combined proposal of the three operational communities.
If the final CWG proposal deviated substantially from what the global multistakeholder community wants, that fact should be revealed.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regarding his claim about the global multistakeholder community, our understanding of the CWG’s charter is that the group is open to any interested participant. The process was based in ICANN through the chartering organisations and that
is hardly surprising given the role of ICANN (and indeed the invitation from NTIA). However, the process was open to anyone, and was based around developing consensus – no votes and no sustained opposition on compromises that allowed the CWG to move forward.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regarding his claim about his specific comments on the proposal, we note that the CWG proposal states on p. 51 that "The final proposal has received the consensus support of the CWG-Stewardship with no objections or minority statements
recorded for Chartering Organization consideration.” We note that rationales were given and CWG consensus positions explained for each comment received during the public comment period that was not included in the proposal (including Richard’s). It is our
understanding that all of the comments were discussed and that some of them, including the comments about jurisdiction, were identified as items that could be addressed in future work.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-IE">The ICG has received the following from Richard Hill: <<a href="http://mm.ianacg.org/pipermail/icg-forum_ianacg.org/2015-June/000001.html"><span style="color:purple">http://mm.ianacg.org/pipermail/icg-forum_ianacg.org/2015-June/000001.html</span></a>>
According to the process the ICG uses to handle forum comments <<a href="https://www.ianacg.org/icg-files/documents/Community-Comments-Handling-1May15-final.pdf"><span style="color:purple">https://www.ianacg.org/icg-files/documents/Community-Comments-Handling-1May15-final.pdf</span></a>>,
the ICG assesses whether the comments are to be investigated by the operational community itself, and if we draw that conclusion we make the OC aware of the comment and ask whether the OC has any input. So we would appreciate input you may have no later than
August 10.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
