[council] Motion re Extension of Public Comment Periods

[Gomes, Chuck]

I do not believe it is a good idea to suspend comment periods.  Just
make sure they are longer.

	Agreed. Thats why we could work with "suspend" as to indicate
that as soon as the meeting starts the clock stops running for comment
periods.

		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.
