<DIV>Dear Anne,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Per item 1 below, I have sent a request to the list and also a reminder to
have members confirm their Primary and Alternate representatives from each group
as you had suggested. I am still awaiting some responses. Also, as
Lori is now the Alternate member from the IPC she would not be eligible to serve
as Vice Chair as only Primary representatives can serve as Chair or Vice
Chair. So, once we confirm Primary and Alternate members the next step
would be to ask for volunteers for the position of Vice Chair and, if there are
multiple volunteers, to proceed to an election per the Charter.</DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>As Avri Doria has previously reported, she submitted to
the GNSO Council in March two SCI review requests (attached). These
were discussed during the Council meeting on 19 March, but action on them
was deferred to the GNSO Council meeting on 16 April. For
reference, here is the link to the transcript from the 19 March meeting: <A

<P class=MsoNormal>When preparing the meeting agenda, the Council Chair in
consultation with the Council Vice-Chairs determines whether an item belongs
on the consent agenda. All items that are subject to a different voting
threshold than a simple majority vote (see ICANN Bylaws, Article X, section
3-9) or are subject to absentee voting (see section 4.4 – Absentee Voting)
are not eligible for inclusion in the consent agenda. A numbered list of
consent items is included as part of the meeting agenda. The list and
supporting documents are included in the Council agenda in sufficient time
to be read by all Council members prior to the meeting in accordance with
section 3.3 – Notice of Meetings of these Operating
Procedures.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>At the beginning of the meeting, the Chair asks members
what items they wish to have removed from the consent agenda and discussed
individually. If any Council member requests that an item be removed from
the consent agenda, it must be removed. Council members may request that an
item be removed for any reason. They may wish, for example, to discuss the
item, to query the item, or to register a vote against the item. If an item
is removed from the consent agenda, it is added to the meeting agenda for
that meeting, unless the Council Chair in consultation with the Council
Vice-Chairs determines differently.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>When there are no more items to be removed, the Chair
reads out the number of the remaining consent items. Then the Chair calls
for a vote. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>When preparing the minutes, the full text of (or links
to) the resolutions, reports or recommendations that were adopted as part of
the consent agenda are included. In addition the minutes should include a
statement regarding the composition/threshold that approved the consent
agenda.<o:p></o:p></P></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
