[council] Motion re Extension of Public Comment Periods

[Gomes, Chuck]

I am not sure we should restrict it to only comment periods that would
end during an ICANN meeting.  It seems to me that any comment period
that overlaps an ICANN meeting should be extended.

	Thanks all for considering this late-breaking motion.  Here is
an amended version of the "Resolved" paragraph -- to clarify 'extension'
vs. 'suspension...

	 

	RESOLVED:

	 

	The GNSO Council strongly urges ICANN Staff to extend, for seven
days, any public comment periods which would otherwise end during the
seven days of an ICANN meeting.

	Subject: [council] Motion re Suspension of Public Comment
Periods

	 

	Hi all:  several Councilors would like to introduce and pass
this motion today, whilst we have several different, significant and
ongoing public comment periods.  Therefore I make the motion...

	 

	Whereas, ICANN's meetings require the full attention of GNSO
Councilors and many other GNSO participants.

	 

	Whereas, ICANN has many ongoing public comment periods of
significant interest to many GNSO Councilors and participants.

	 

	Whereas, ICANN's typical comment periods are already difficult
for many members of the ICANN community, particularly those that must
consult with members of their Constituency and/or member
organization(s).

	 

	RESOLVED:

	 

	The GNSO Council strongly urges ICANN Staff to extend all public
comment periods which would otherwise end during an ICANN meeting, for
seven days.
