<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Heather, Tatiana, and all, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you very much for Heather’s and Tatiana’s very thorough review!!
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Update: </b>Staff have cleaned up the documents based on Heather’s and Tatiana’s input, and in particular, “harmonized” the guidelines for 1.3/1.4, 2.2/2.3, 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 by porting changes in applicable sections. We also ported
stylistic/formatting changes to 4.2/4.3 and 18.12. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, we noted one substantive point on the 1.3/1.4 Rejection Action guideline (please see pages 6-7):
<u><span style="color:blue"><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jXc2TQCv4ArMo0LPzTrLncIG_JwSnuQqV05xvrApg6E/edit#heading=h.hy4or9z73yzo">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jXc2TQCv4ArMo0LPzTrLncIG_JwSnuQqV05xvrApg6E/edit#heading=h.hy4or9z73yzo</a></span></u><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is the eventual GNSO Council vote to support, object to, or abstain from the Approval Action a supermajority vote, or simple majority?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Bylaws Section 11.3(j)(iv) reads: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">“Amendments to Fundamental Bylaws and Article Amendments as contemplated by Section 25.2 of the Bylaws, Asset Sales, as contemplated by Article 26 of the Bylaws, amendments to ICANN Articles of Incorporation: requires
an affirmative vote of a GNSO Supermajority.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the original version of this guideline, it was noted that the decision shall be taken by a GNSO Council simple majority vote. We just made the correction in redline on pages 6-7. We would appreciate a sanity check from the Drafting Team
on this point. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Again, thank you for everyone for your final review, which continues till Friday, 11 October COB

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Heather, Ariel and all, <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I (happily) reviewed my part. Made some corrections. Heather, I did go through your part's reviews before reviewing mine as I thought we better to harmonise the language on the matters of director's removals if there're any pieces of texts
changed or added by you in your part. So if you see your additional language copy-pasted in mine - it's not mindless plagiarism, it's my appreciation of your efforts and full agreement with what you suggested in your part language-wise. AI did this only after
checks whether it's needed in the part assigned to me, so it's not "harmonise for the sake of harmonisation" but rather some allingment. Big thanks! <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are my corrections, too :-)<o:p></o:p></p>

and I fully support, parking final review of this Guideline until the ccNSO-GNSO Joint Consultation Guidelines are complete. As I had allocated myself two final reviews and David had already reviewed one of those this past weekend, I've suggested that he take
over review of 2.2/2.3 instead. I have updated our workplan allocation accordingly: <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.google.com_document_d_1yeydtqli8UWOrrvChIf9EMprGxo0pOr5lcadM-2Dn0PnY_edit&d=DwMFaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=dRzB-YypMqj9AZjlP_sZHORJtVF4M6AI0vip1lbQy10&m=NOx-CGo_4OpHkZSjhqAwYte8ieyX-Iy-KL9fREaw99g&s=GAwh5aXkmvwzgBj7DUv3vO8kMI5tO4c8HQUq3scxxIM&e=" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yeydtqli8UWOrrvChIf9EMprGxo0pOr5lcadM-n0PnY/edit

to rock-paper-scissors over who gets what). I'm happy to take on 2 reviews to complete the list unless a DT member who was not allocated a doc wants to take on a review. Starting from next Monday morning, 7 October (please wait until Monday morning so Julie,
Ariel and I can ensure that 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 are ready and port any relevant changes across to the other docs) please review your allocated document next week. When your review is complete, indicate so in the workplan table by typing 'yes' or 'complete' into
the relevant box in the chart. Ariel has diligently ported backwards to earlier documents our learnings and decisions from the more recent documents, but we're all more experienced now, and this final review may catch further things we didn't think about earlier
in the year. If you find any issues of concern in your review, please raise them ASAP on the DT list, making very clear which document you're referring to and what the problem is.<span style="color:#500050"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
