[Gnso-bylaws-dt] PLEASE READ: URGENT NEXT STEPS to finalising our work

[Heather Forrest]

Dear DT colleagues,

An *update* and a *reminder* as we hit mid-week here in Australia (though
still Tuesday in many DT members' time zones).

*UPDATE*: On commencing final review of the 18.12 Guidelines, David very
sensibly flagged that this guideline is inherently tied to the accompanying
Joint Consultation Guidelines still under development with the ccNSO. David
suggests, and I fully support, parking final review of this Guideline until
the ccNSO-GNSO Joint Consultation Guidelines are complete. As I had
allocated myself two final reviews and David had already reviewed one of
those this past weekend, I've suggested that he take over review of 2.2/2.3
instead. I have updated our workplan allocation accordingly:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yeydtqli8UWOrrvChIf9EMprGxo0pOr5lcadM-n0PnY/edit

*REMINDER*: Final reviews must be completed by this Friday in order to meet
the Council document deadline. If at this point in the week you believe
that you will be unable to complete your review on time, just let me know
so that the document can be re-allocated in good time to finish.

Best wishes to all,

Heather
