[council] Draft charter for IRTf Paart A PDP WG charter

[Olof Nordling]

Avri, Chuck, all,
Starting with Chuck's item 2 - I fully agree that it's a real squeeze. Let's recall that the PDP rules set out 15 days for this (constituency statements due at T+35 and Initial Report due at T+50) and even that isn't easy, although doable (based on experience;-).
Then, recalling what we did for the IDN WG, we used the term Outcomes Report (in drafts 1 to n until we got consensus, then calling it "final", or rather skipping the prefix "draft" - this in order to save the expression Final Report to something endorsed by the Council.
Just my two Euro-cents on this for now.
Best regards

Olof

i thought about that and since T was that point the WG started, the
time necessary to reach that time was actually before the charter and
something for which the WG is not responsible.  Maybe it is something
that should be added to the motion (found n the workspace or at  https://st.icann.org/gnso-council/index.cgi?17_july_2008_motions)

I do not know.  Perhaps the person responsible the TBD Staff person
can speak up on that one.
