<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">As discussed on our teleconference of May 24, I have tried to redraft a portion of the language I suggested for public comment regarding Rule #4, Time-for-Filing.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In my <a href="https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/iot/2018-May/000397.html">
email</a> of May 22, I suggested certain language for this request for public comment. One sentence of that email was as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">It appeared to the IRP IOT that while there was qualified support expressed for this kind of time limitation, there was more criticism of it as unfair and unduly
restrictive.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In an <a href="https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/iot/2018-May/000398.html">
email</a> on the same day, Malcolm expressed concern with that sentence. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On our teleconference of May 24, we agreed to take a more straight-forward approach, and I was to suggest language to that end. Here is what I suggest:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:10.0pt;margin-left:.5in;mso-add-space:auto;line-height:115%">
<o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;mso-add-space:auto;line-height:115%;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
That in using the language I suggested in my email of the 22<sup>nd</sup>, we delete the sentence above shown in yellow.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:10.0pt;margin-left:.5in;mso-add-space:auto;line-height:115%">
<o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="2" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;mso-add-space:auto;line-height:115%;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
That we replace that sentence with the following language shown here in bold:<span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%"><o:p></o:p></span></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt">On the topic of the 12-month limitation to file an IRP, 13 of the 19 respondents to the public consultation commented on this with 11 having issues with this proposal and either
opposed it or proposed changes.<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
