<p class="MsoNormal">Dear All, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In this week’s meeting, the EPDP Team is expected to start the review of
<a href="https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-epdp-idn-team/attachments/20221116/c1e0a14b/IDNEPDPICANNOrgInput-16Nov22-0001.pdf">
ICANN org input</a> (received in November 2022) for a subsect of draft recommendations.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Staff prepared a spreadsheet tool to facilitate the EPDP Team’s review:
<a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PwsbeW2Ihw_qJNzVEnPs-9uW3ZaMZ19oToEhaYMwkB4/edit?usp=sharing">
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PwsbeW2Ihw_qJNzVEnPs-9uW3ZaMZ19oToEhaYMwkB4/edit?usp=sharing</a>. We are circulating this tool ahead of the call to provide you a preview.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please note the following: <o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The spreadsheet maps the Org input to the individual draft recommendation and charter question. Specifically,
<b>Column H</b> includes the Org input text. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><b>General Comments 1-7</b> at the top of the chart apply to multiple recommendations. Hence you may notice some duplications in the spreadsheet.
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Per discussion between leadership team and staff, we have identified a subsect of Org input that may require further discussions by the EPDP Team. Those input were marked as
<b>“Yes” in Column I</b>. In the subsequent meetings, we expect to focus discussions on those items.
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The Org input for Rec 2.4, E2 (objection processes), and E3 (string similarity review) have already been discussed by the EPDP Team.
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The remaining Org input were identified as
<b>“low-hanging fruit”</b> that may not require discussion by the EPDP Team; those input were marked as
<b>“No” in Column I</b>. Pending the team’s agreement on this assessment, the leadership team and staff can incorporate those input as redline in our draft output documents.
