The Operations Steering Committee (OSC) and the Policy Process Steering Committee (PPSC) were created under the GNSO Improvements Process that began in November 2008. Their Charters were approved in January 2009. They completed their work in January 2011 and September 2011 respectively.</div><div><br></div><div>Here are some details from their archived wikis.

reviewing and recommending processes used within the GNSO for developing
policy and recommending any changes. The PPSC established two separate
teams, one tasked with developing a proposal for a new WG model (<a href="https://community.icann.org/display/gnsoppsc/WG-WT+Home">WG-WT Home</a>) and the other a new policy development process (<a href="https://community.icann.org/display/gnsoppsc/PDP-WT+Home">PDP-WT Home</a>).</div><div><br></div>Best regards,<div><br></div><div>Julie</div><div><br></div><div>Julie Hedlund, Policy Director<br><div><br></div><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><div style="font-family:Calibri; font-size:11pt; text-align:left; color:black; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: #b5c4df 1pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 3pt"><span style="font-weight:bold">From: </span> <Aikman-Scalese>, Anne <<a href="mailto:AAikman@lrlaw.com">AAikman@lrlaw.com</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Date: </span> Tuesday, July 2, 2013 1:45 PM<br><span style="font-weight:bold">To: </span> Mike O'Conner <<a href="mailto:mike@haven2.com">mike@haven2.com</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Cc: </span> Julie Hedlund <<a href="mailto:julie.hedlund@icann.org">julie.hedlund@icann.org</a>>, "<a href="mailto:gnso-improvem-impl-sc@icann.org">gnso-improvem-impl-sc@icann.org</a>" <<a href="mailto:gnso-improvem-impl-sc@icann.org">gnso-improvem-impl-sc@icann.org</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Subject: </span> RE: [gnso-improvem-impl-sc] SCI Charter Latest Version from Mikey<br></div><div><br></div><div><!-- Template generated by Exclaimer Mail Disclaimers on 10:45:13 Tuesday, 2 July 2013 --><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><style type="text/css">P.44c220e5-776f-4a2d-a271-2aab8791bdc0 {
