<DIV>Dear Greg,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks. I was attempting to locate the source of the concerns to see
if that added to my understanding of the way forward, and I had misread the
constituencies website . These concerns will no doubt emerge from the
consultations and explanations ahead, but the whole result is really quite
frustrating.</DIV>

<DIV>Cheers</DIV>

representatives of the GAC and GNSO held a discussion at the ICANN58 Public
Meeting in Copenhagen, facilitated by former ICANN Board member Dr. Bruce
Tonkin, to discuss a possible path forward for reconciling GAC advice and GNSO
policy on the topic of protection at the second level of the domain name
system for IGO acronyms and the remaining names and acronyms associated with
the Red Cross (being those designated by the IGO-INGO PDP Working Group as
“Scope 2” identifiers);<U></U><U></U></SPAN></P>

recognized within the International Red Cross and Red Crescent movement, and
the full names of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, the
International Committee of the Red Cross, and the International Federation of

Council passed a resolution noting that the March 2017 facilitated discussions
had highlighted a set of exceptional circumstances (in the availability of a
finite list of names and documented evidence of the legal basis for their
protection) constituting a justifiable basis for the Council’s taking the
extraordinary step of reconvening the original IGO-INGO PDP Working Group
pursuant to Section 16 of the GNSO PDP Manual for the specific purpose of
considering possible modifications to its previous consensus policy
recommendations concerning and limited to the so-called “Scope 2” Red Cross
full names noted by the Board, and including a defined, finite list of
variants of those names, and with acronyms and any other names not falling
within the scope of this reconvened effort (<A
