    Dear Jonathan and Alissa,<br>
    <br>
    I have a question about process here: how are the ICG and the CWG
    treating comments that fall outside a public consultation period?
    Are these receiving special treatment and if so, why? I note the CWG
    has just opened a public consultation period - should these comment
    have gone into the CWG consultation rather than using this seemingly
    special track?<br>
    Kindest regards,<br>
    <br>
    Olivier<br>

              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></p>
