[CWG-Stewardship] Important: Final Proposal for review until 23:59 UTC on 10 June

While it is important to get the formal rule specified correctly, I think it’s also helpful to have a clear picture of how this will work in practice.

I would expect that once the CSC calls for a special review, the ccNSO and GNSO councils will almost certainly agree.  The CSC is supposed to have the technical expertise to understand the issues.  The only circumstance I can imagine where the ccNSO and/or GNSO councils might balk is if they feel the CSC is somehow out of control.  In general, I would expect quick agreement from the councils.  It costs them little to agree but if they disagree they will have to explain why and brace themselves for some criticism.

I don’t have any objection to the proposed formal rule.  It serves as safety net in case the CSC is indeed awry, and it also serves as a forcing function to get the ccNSO and GNSO councils to pay attention to what the CSC is saying.

The staff team has reviewed the proposal and completed all actions listed. Please note that Sidley will provide a final review as well which includes some work on the implementation text in Section IV and the Term Sheet in Annex S.

> With this, the CWG-Stewardship now enters into a final review period that lasts until 23:59 UTC tomorrow (10 June). As noted on the call, the intention of the review period is to do a ‘proofread’ and notify the group of any errors. During this period of 26 hours, any statements or comments on the Proposal may also be sent to the group. As the Chairs noted on the call, if you are making a statement, please be sure to identify whether you do so as a member on behalf of a Chartering Organization, as an individual representing a specific organization, or as an individual with a personal remark/contribution.
> 
> After 23:59 UTC on 10 June, the Chairs will work with staff to rectify any errors, update section VI.C. regarding statements, and deliver the Proposal to the Chartering Organizations on 11 June. Our call on 11 June will focus on how the CWG-Stewardship does its engagement, through its members and participants, to coalesce support for the Proposal among Chartering Organizations. In addition, there are two webinars on 11 June (one at 06:00 UTC and one at 13:00 UTC): https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-06-03-en. These webinars aim to provide a briefing to the broader community about the contents of the final proposal. Finally, as we head into ICANN53 in Buenos Aires, please refer to the schedule of sessions that relate to the CWG-Stewardship work:https://community.icann.org/x/EJg0Aw.
