[gnso-review-dt] Public Comments & Next Meeting

[Jen Wolfe]

Hello GNSO Review Working Team:

Thank you again for your continued time and commitment to this process.  As you may have seen from our email thread, there have been some concerns expressed about the 24 July (today) deadline to provide public comments.  I am reaching out to let you know that the schedule can accommodate extending the deadline for one additional week to 31 July so that any groups or individual who wish to comment  have one more week to respond.  I appreciate those groups who have completed their public comments and encourage everyone to have your respective groups provide comments by next week's deadline, which will be the final deadline in order for the finalized report to be issued on 31 August.

I have summarized the comments received to date below:

Comments to date:

*             Brand Registry Group has submitted a comment<http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-gnso-review-01jun15/msg00000.html> on 16 July

*             Registry Stakeholder Group has submitted a comment<http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-gnso-review-01jun15/msg00001.html> on 23 July

*             In progress are comments from ISPCP and ALAC - all expected to be submitted by the current due date of 24 July.  There may be others, but staff is not currently aware of this.

*             64 comments provided verbally during ICANN53 sessions - see posted<http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-gnso-review-01jun15/msg00002.html> table

Public Comment/Engagement:
This Public Comment<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/gnso-review-draft-2015-06-01-en> period opened on 1 June and has been extended once to 24 July - total of 53 days.
*         During ICANN53, Westlake conducted a total of 8 briefings for the community, in addition to a briefing included in the public session<https://buenosaires53.icann.org/en/schedule/wed-aoc-org-reviews> on Reviews.
*         A total of 64 comments made during these presentations have been catalogued and are being considered by Westlake - see the posted<http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-gnso-review-01jun15/msg00002.html> table.

As one additional point:  we were scheduled to have a call next Thursday to discuss the comments and begin formulating our recommendation to the SIC on which recommendations we think should move into implementation.  I would like to suggest that we proceed with the call as scheduled to use the time to touch base on comments and begin the conversation on implementation, but certainly understand if it would be more advantageous to wait until all public comments have been received.

I would appreciate your feedback so we can either send out a new Doodle poll to reschedule or plan to proceed as scheduled.

Thanks again for your continued support of this process!  Have a great weekend!

Jen
