Hi all<br><br>Thanks for your amazing productivity and dedication today. I have heard from more than 1 member of the Team at 5am their local time today. Very, very much appreciated.<br><br>OK - this is what we needed to do today:<br>
<br>(1) Definitions of law enf. and applicable laws. Minor changes requested by Peter - are we comfortable, or not? <font color="#009900">DONE</font><br>(2)
Where are we on proxies? - is there some agreed text to go into the
recommendations now (thanks for your work on this Susan, James and
others) <font color="#ff9900">IN PROGRESS</font><br>
(3) How much of the consumer chapter stays in the full report, and how much goes into an appendix. <font color="#009900">DONE</font><br>
(4) Background on WHOIS chapter - does it stay where it is, or does it go into an appendix? <font color="#009900">DONE</font><br>(5) any final comments on the compliance letter, please? Alice, please can you produce a clean copy of this. <font color="#ff6600">IN PROGRESS _ ALICE HAS BEEN WRESTLING WITH THE FULL REPORT TODAY.<br>
<br><font color="#000000">Well done, all. Thank you Alice for producing the consolidated version. <br>
<br><b>Outstanding open issues on recommendations:<br><br>(1) The recommendation on "interface" (Lutz's one). James has suggested that we frame this as an issues report, and this has found support from me, Kathy, Omar, Mikhail and Bill. Can we do this please?<br>
(2) Proxy recommendations. Bill has raised a problem with the proposed best practices; Susan has acknowledged that she and James would be happy with less detail - waiting for proposed language here. Susan has just circulated an additional proposed recommendation on reviewing existing practices. <br>
(3) The Person - Bill raised a query whether this should be a member of the Compliance team, or someone else.<br>
<br><br></b>I see (1) and (3) are easy and (2) is difficult. <br><br>On a more general level, James has repeatedly and rightly raised that our recommendations need to have time frames, and be correctly targeted. I agree, and I'm sure we all do, but we're struggling to know how to do this. I have one suggestion, which would be to task the Board to consider our recommendations within 3 months, and present an action plan for implementation within another 3 months, together with budgetary impact and the identity of who has been tasked. James -would this work?<br>
<br><br><b>Rest of the document<br><br></b></font></font><font color="#ff6600"><font color="#000000">This is mainly in good
shape, but it needs a proof-read now, and the elimination of the
remaining highlighted text - I do not see these as contentious.</font></font><br>Bill is working to pull together the language of the findings/conclusions just before the recommendations.<br><br><br><b>What's the plan now?<br>
<br></b>I want us to sign off definitively on the recommendations, and stabilise the text in the next hour, please. To do this, folks, we're going to sort out the proxies. Please note that there is already one team member (Bill) expressing concern on these; as I read Peter's mails on the subject he was also expressing concerns that we are introducing very detailed text very late in the day. We have a strong statement on proxy liability from Dakar. Can we have proposals to close this down, please?<br>
<br>Over the next two days, I would like Alice and Kathy to carefully proof-read, and tidy up the text in the main body of the report. If there are any volunteers to assist them (Bill - you mentioned that you may have some time? Others?? ). Then we can get it published, but we need to sign off on the substantive recommendations in the <b>next hour!</b><br>
