Dear All,

On behalf of the EPDP Team leadership, we are sending the draft Phase 1 Initial Report for your approval by EOB Tuesday, 11 April. Please see the message from Donna and Justine below.

Dear Team

Congratulations! We did it!

Attached is the Initial Report for Phase 1 that we intend to post for public comment by the end of the month. If you have time to review please do and let us know if you come across any typos or minor issue. However, please note that at this stage of the process the Leadership Team has agreed that it is too late for substantive changes.

We intend to publish the report for the minimum comment period of 42 days. However, if we receive requests to extend the duration we will certainly consider it.

On behalf of the Leadership Team, I want to thank everyone in the Team for your respective contributions and dedication that got us to this point. I appreciate these efforts can become tedious and at times hard to maintain interest so sincere thanks for sticking with us.

I know we still have work to do, quite a bit as it turns out, but we now have a good chunk of it behind us. Buy yourself a drink, or chocolate or ice cream to celebrate ?

We're going to take a mini-break and when we come back on 20 April we'll start what will largely be an administrative discussion about how to tackle Phase 2. And also just a heads up that I have requested 4 sessions at ICANN77 and I hope to have some news to share in that regard.

Big thanks to our support team of Ariel, Emily and Steve. Where would we be without Ariel's presentations ?. And thanks to Sarmad and Pitinan for your expertise and analysis of data that has been so helpful to our consideration of the charter questions. Special mention to our Board Liaisons Edmon and Alan as well for their contributions; and Michael Karakash for joining the calls.

Have a great weekend. We'll see you in a couple of weeks.

Donna and Justine

As an additional note, policy staff are in process compiling content for Annex E (EPDP Team membership and attendance), and it will be ready before the report is submitted to ICANN org for processing. We will also discuss with the leadership team regarding any new input received on the D1b draft text circulated yesterday.

From the staff team, a BIG THANKS to Donna and Justine for their diligence, kindness, and leadership. And congratulations to everyone for the great work done! It has been an amazing journey and we have come a long way together!

Best Regards,
Ariel, Emily, Steve
