Dear Rudi,

Marika Konings has noted that unless there is something specific to report
or consult on, staff would recommend to provide such an update in writing as
the Council has moved away from WG 'regular' updates during Council
teleconferences and have focused instead on the F2F meetings to provide such
updates as these allow for more interaction and dialogue. For the F2F
meetings, it is usually up to the WG to decide who provides the updates,
whether it is the chair(s), Council liaison or staff (or a combination
thereof).  Thus, there will be an opportunity for you and Chris to provide a
written update via Ching to the Council list at any point that you wish to
do so, and staff will facilitate getting an update scheduled with the
Council in Singapore.

Best regards,

Julie

Dear Julie, Chris,

I do not see any problem with regards a report to be delivered the 27th
February. Based on our workplace we could certainly give status and the
progress made in the WG. Also, we will be able to present the schedule for
the outreach at the Singapore ICANN meeting.

Till this afternoon.
