On the call they discussed a few bylaws issues related to the budget and provided their feedback to the Chairs via the attached letter. The information and recommendations from DT-O were incorporated in the document shared with Bylaws Coordination Group. There is one exception to this as follows: DT-O discussed an edit to the Caretaker Budget Principle 1.f. An action item was assigned to Xavier Calvez to provide revised text for this principle. At the time the Chairs reviewed the document, this text had not yet been provided by Xavier. Chuck, as the DT-O lead, has made an attempt to edit the language in 1.f. (as seen in the attached letter), but the Chairs preferred to leave a placeholder in the response until confirmation from Xavier. We will update the Bylaws Coordination Group once that update is available. </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Best, </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Grace </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><div id=""><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>-- </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Grace Abuhamad</span></b><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:7.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Manager, Public Policy</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:7.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>ICANN | Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers</span></b><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:7.5pt;color:black'>801 17th Street NW, Suite 400 | Washington, DC 20006</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:7.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Direct: +1 202 249 7545 | Mobile: +1 310 200 7638</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Interested in the IANA Stewardship Transition? </span></b><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'><a href="https://www.icann.org/stewardship-accountability">LEARN MORE</a>. <a href="https://www.icann.org/stewardship-accountability#status">STAY UPDATED</a>. <a href="https://twitter.com/icann">FOLLOW</a>. <a href="https://www.icann.org/stewardship-accountability#involved">ENGAGE</a>. </span></b><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>From: </span></b><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'><<a href="mailto:cwg-client-bounces@icann.org">cwg-client-bounces@icann.org</a>> on behalf of Grace Abuhamad <<a href="mailto:grace.abuhamad@icann.org">grace.abuhamad@icann.org</a>><br><b>Date: </b>Thursday, April 14, 2016 at 11:16 AM<br><b>To: </b>Mathieu Weill via bylaws-coord <<a href="mailto:bylaws-coord@icann.org">bylaws-coord@icann.org</a>><br><b>Cc: </b>Client Committee <<a href="mailto:cwg-client@icann.org">cwg-client@icann.org</a>><br><b>Subject: </b>[client com] Responses to the Bylaws Coordination Group</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><div><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Dear all, </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>On behalf of the CWG-Stewardship Chairs, I am sharing the attached document which includes the CWG-Stewardship’s responses to the questions posed by the Bylaws Coordination Group on 2 April 2016.
