<div class="" style="word-wrap:break-word; line-break:after-white-space">Hi Susan: 
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thank you for this work. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I read the draft. I found the analysis, thought and rationale to be excellent, and (having been on your side of the writing table) can understand the amount of work done in a short period of time. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">However, I think it is too long (Board members will not read it but rather rely on a staff summary), somewhat repetitive (I get the idea of a high-level cover letter and a detailed appendix, but the cover letter is too detailed and much of the
 material is repeated), and find it overly defensive of the SubPro report (which is not necessary in order to make our points). </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I know it is somewhat unfair for me to make theses observations when you and the others have done all this work without offering more. With that in mind, I have reorganised the report, attempting ameliorate the issues I listed above and focus
 on our key observations (primarily that the ODA legitimate concerns are implementation issues so let’s approve the final report and get on with the IRT). I sought to keep all the salient points and rationale while adding no new or differing ideas.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I hope your and your team members find this helpful in some way and that youunderstand the constructive way in which it was intended. I’d be pleased to explain or discuss any of the amended writing.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Feel free to use any, all, or none of the attached. </div>

Hi all</div>

Please find attached for review the draft input to the Board on the SubPro ODA, prepared by the Council small team.  As we discussed during the SPS, the intent is to provide initial comments to the Board as it goes into its workshop next week, during which
 there will be a day devoted to discussion of SubPro and the ODA, probably on 22 January. </div>

<div class="" style="margin:0cm; font-size:11pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
With the holiday period, the small team have only had a short time to pull this together. There will be an opportunity to discuss and ask questions during our Council call on 19 January but could I please urge you to try to review the draft and send feedback
 over the mailing list in advance if at all possible.  For the Board to have time to consider our input during their discussion next week, it needs to be sent promptly after our GNSO Council meeting.  This does not preclude Council from providing further input
 subsequently, as we see fit.</div>
