<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">I don’t understand the purpose of this straw poll. It was pretty clear on our last call that there was no stomach for any further expansion of geo term special rights. 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.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">Also, there are no qualifications within the poll. 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).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">I don’t think it is fair to excise out one concept without closing off all the other wish list ideas presented by others. My concern is that the purpose of the poll is just to create a new baseline
upon which all others can then tack-on all the other overreaching ideas and wish lists they want.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">On the call yesterday, we discussed whether it might be possible to come to an agreement to make a recommendation regarding an Early Reveal Process for Adjectival Form of Country Names. 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.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Note that if the Work Track is able to come to an agreement to put forward this recommendation, this is the only recommendation Work Track 5 will make on the topic of Additional Categories of Terms Not Included
in the 2012 Applicant Guidebook. If the Work Track is not able to come to an agreement to put forward this recommendation, the Work Track will not make a recommendation on this topic to the full Working Group.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
