[council] GNSO Council message of thanks to the JAS WG

It's true that the developments today may have removed some of the
reasons for sending this (my initial hope had been to have consensus on
the original statement before today). However, the "optics" issue and
the perception amongst some Board and community members that the GNSO,
and the Council in particular, continue NOT to support the work of the
JAS WG persist. In addition, several Board members today referred to the
group and its work (as did the resolution itself). 
 
In view of the Board's resolutions this morning, I'd remove the
reference to participating in the first round "without delaying the
rollout any further"; the statement would therefore read:
 
"The GNSO Council unanimously believes that it is important for the new
gTLD program to be globally inclusive, and to have as part of the
implementation plan meaningful and workable mechanisms which will assist
potential needy applicants, inter alia from developing regions of the
world, participate in the first round of the new gTLD program as fully
as possible. We thank the members of the JAS WG for all their hard work
in preparing the two Milestone Reports, and look forward to receiving
its Final Report."

And to add to that, given the ICANN Board resolution and the amount of
work ahead of us to wrap this up, what is the purpose of sending this?
 
More specifically, we need to have the final JAS report with all
feedback from the community, GNSO approval of the final report, and
staff implementation details in time to the Board by the ICANN meeting
in Dakar.  
 
We should focus on that as opposed to issuing a statement.

So, for the sake of clarity, what the heck does the current version
look like?
