But the very fact that a F2F meeting in BA to discuss issues is being considered is an indication that we may need the extra time to get things right. After all, our drop dead time limit is 2017 - not that I hope we take anywhere near that time. But if we are only just finalising a Report for public comment at BA that should be fine. There are many issues here, raising serious concerns on all sides. I’d rather take the time to reach consensus and if it means the timeline stretches yet again, I can live with that.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div><br></div><div>Holly<br><div><div>On 20 Mar 2015, at 4:37 am, Mary Wong <<a href="mailto:mary.wong@icann.org">mary.wong@icann.org</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Hello Kiran, Paul and everyone,</div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Thanks for the questions; we understand the additional demands and pressures that more meetings, days and hours place on everyone who is already devoting a substantial amount of time and energy to this PDP!</div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">If I may take each question in turn, although some of the responses do overlap:</div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><b>Meeting coverage and agenda</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>– I’m afraid that we don’t yet have a draft agenda for discussion. A primary reason for this is that the WG is still working through the complexities of Category F, which has meant that we have had to revise our Work Plan a couple of times, resulting in the anticipated date for publication of the WG’s Initial Report being pushed back. I attach a copy of the current and a proposed revised Work Plan that staff has just circulated to the chairs, where you can see the change of dates. Both plans still aim to have the WG review public comments and gear up for the Final Report in Buenos Aires, with the goal to submit the Final Report to the GNSO Council in good time before the next ICANN meeting in Dublin in October. As this WG is expected to ask quite a few difficult questions of the community during the public comment period and we also expect quite a lot of comments in return, the hope was that being able to review and discuss those comments (including preparing any WG responses or necessary follow ups) in a F2F setting would be helpful.</div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><b>Comparison with other PDP Working Groups</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>– as the idea of F2F facilitated PDP WG meetings is still in its pilot year, the only other group that has been selected by the GNSO Council to conduct a similar, additional, intensive meeting has been the IGO-INGO Curative Rights Working Group (which Phil Corwin, a member of this PPSAI WG, co-chairs). As the aim of these meetings is to facilitate timely, effective discussions and consensus-building, the Council selects a group for the exercise based on the progress and anticipated milestones to be reached for that group. If it will help, feedback from this WG (from October 2014) and the IGO-CRP group (from February 2015) strongly suggests that having sufficient dedicated time together to work through difficult or complex questions with the aid of a neutral facilitator was extremely useful. </div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><b>Accomplishments</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>– clearly the optimal ideal situation would be to have every single WG member “in the room” so that consensus decisions can be made, but practical realities are such that this may not always be the case. While I wouldn’t say that a group emerging from a F2F meeting should not reach at least preliminary agreement, our experience with the first two F2F sessions indicate that such preliminary agreement was the result of constructive and dedicated discussion that weren’t (somewhat artificially) limited by the weekly one-hour slots, and the WG chairs have been very careful to characterize these preliminary agreements as just that, for the full WG to review when the overall analysis of the recommendations and a formal consensus call is done.</div><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;

font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">The results of the first poll showed a preference for Friday 19 June by 9 members, with 6 other members preferring the two-session option. Staff has checked with other departments (e.g. Compliance) as to their planned sessions for the week in order to minimize conflicts as much as possible. However, please note that much still depends on variables that we cannot ascertain at this stage, especially the question of how many sessions there will be on IANA stewardship transition and accountability, and when these will take place. Nonetheless, we venture to suggest that the most feasible times for the two-session option would be Sunday 21 June (possibly from 4.30-7.30 or 5.00-8.00 p.m.) and Wednesday 24 June (similar times as for Sunday).<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">As such, we now have a choice to make as between Friday 19 June and a combination of Sunday and Wednesday evenings as indicated above (though please note that this may be subject to change).<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">In order to assist the chairs with the final decision, which they hope to make as soon as possible to enable those planning to be in Buenos Aires to confirm their travel arrangements, here is the new poll:<a href="http://doodle.com/2zt2s2pnfm2k3sy5" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;">http://doodle.com/2zt2s2pnfm2k3sy5</a>. As with the earlier poll, it’s been designed to show the chairs which is everyone’s first option – please use the Comments section if you have concerns, have no preference, or other comments. For members who are not going to be in Buenos Aires, please note that full remote participation facilities will be available for the F2F meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Thank you!
