[council] GNSO working group of volunteers IDN issues update

[Mawaki Chango]

Hello Olof,
thank you for your reply... and just to clarify, though my
earlier confusion may be due to that I was neither in Wellington
nor on the call May 18, I have now understood the Decision 4. In
my previous email, I was not referring to the joint GNSO/ccNSO
working group, but to GNSO working group that we are forming now
with these volunteers as Bruce explained. I may interpret the
reason of your assumption (that I was referring to the former)
as it is obvious for you that all the volunteers will
participate in the GNSO working group anyway, which is fine.
So let's move ahead if no further misunderstanding.
Very best regards,

Mawaki
