[Gnso-newgtld-wg-wt5] Please respond - straw poll on Early Reveal Process for Adjectival Form of Country Names - deadline Tuesday 10 September at 14:00 UTC

[Robin Gross]

Paul has summed up my concerns on this poll as well.  Is the plan to just keep asking the question until we get a different answer?  Because that is what it looks like now.

Thanks,
Robin

While I did try find a way forward, there were just too many slippery slope tack-ons and too many voices, including the USG’s (representing 330 million people) indicating no interest.  So, what is the purpose of the poll?  Is it meant to revive the conversation?  We were told on the call that the conversation is closed.

If it said “can you accept this proposal and will stop pushing for other lists, etc.” and/or “can you accept this proposal and agree not tack-on slippery slope additions such as extended time for governments to object” or that sort of thing, the poll might be interesting (assuming we re-open something that was declared closed on the list, which I don’t think we should be doing).

To gather input from all members, including those who were not able to join the call yesterday, the co-leaders would like to hold a straw poll to get a sense of the different perspectives. Note that this is not a vote and will not be treated as such.
