[council] EPDP Weekly update

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi Darcy,

Thanks for the comments.
We are tweaking the weekly report format taking into accounts your
suggestions.
We got now an updated project plan/ work plan and timeline, which can be
found here:
https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=88574682. The
timeline gives a high-level idea while the work plan is probably is the
most accessible and enough details to follow the progress.

With regard to GDPR training, the staff is currently exploring several
options and will share details soon. it is in the action items for the EPDP
leadership and support team.

Best,

Rafik
