<p dir="ltr">Hello Kavous,</p>
<p dir="ltr">If ICANN&#39;s requirement/condition was not meet, the following text would not have been included:</p>
<p dir="ltr">&quot;...<b>ICANN</b><b> has indicated that it could serve as the counterparty to the Community Agreement on behalf of the Names Community</b>...&quot;</p>
<p dir="ltr">That said, the request actually emanated initially from the CWG( I made the request) which Greg then forwarded to CWG client and the client then asked ICANN. Sidley confirmed during the call that they have made the request and awaiting response(I guess the response must have come subsequently). </p>
<p dir="ltr">Anyway, I think the ship has sailed on this one though it&#39;s still on the move and has not reached final destination yet. Anything that requires changes can be done during the PC. If ICANN feels they were misinterpreted, that can be corrected.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Regards<br>
Sent from my LG G4<br>
Kindly excuse brevity and typos</p>
