<p class="MsoNormal">Dear members of the IRP IOT,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It was nice to see some of you at ICANN61 last week during a very busy schedule there.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now that ICANN61 is over and we ate catching back up I want to mention a few things about our plans to continue our work.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">First, on the repose issue, I said I would go back in the archives to do a deep dive on what has happened so far – I started that work but with Adobe down it may take a bit longer than I had hoped. Bernie will let us know how things are
progressing with the Adobe issue.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Meantime, we should explore further the ‘two buckets’ idea – of releasing the rules we are finished with while we wrap up work on repose and possibly other open items.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In this regard, I may send to the list a treatment of specifying the ‘required elements’ of an IRP complaint (see Bylaw section 4.3(n)(iv)(C)). I am thinking that that will probably not be a difficult issue to address.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So, I will be writing more in the next week and look forward to connecting again.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best wishes to all,<o:p></o:p></p>
