(Sometimes, the period is shorter than a week, due to a variety of circumstances, but IPC aims for a week.) A one week extension may not allow sufficient time for the comment to be revised and then put on the list. I think it's fair to assume that Steve would not ask for such an extension lightly, since he has been in our shoes (and your shoes) before. So, I think we should give his request every benefit of the doubt.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">I would suggest (a) a dialogue with Steve about the shortest time he and the BC can get this done, and (b) you figure out the latest we can receive it without pushing our timeline back (and any subsequent "knock-on" effects from that push-back), and share that with Steve.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">Greg</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jan 20, 2017 at 1:33 PM, McAuley, David <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dmcauley@verisign.com" target="_blank">dmcauley@verisign.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Supplementary Procedures for the IRP[icann.org]</a>, we are contacting you to formally request a 2-week extension to the public comment period. <u></u><u></u></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The period is scheduled to end 25-Jan, and we are requesting an extension to 8-Feb, at the earliest.<u></u><u></u></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The justification to grant this extension is that we only just received a legal analysis and recommendations for the proposed procedures. Sidley Austin, attorneys to the CCWG, prepared a legal memo (attached) that was shared with the
BC membership only last week (12-Jan). We’d like to incorporate some of Sidley’s analysis, and need additional time to have BC members review the changes. <u></u><u></u></p>
