Preliminary Recommendation 14) may require input from external parties, such as ccPDP4. In addition, per action items for staff, early input is sought from ICANN org SMEs on some additional draft recommendations (e.g., Preliminary Recommendations 8, 12-13,

about terminology. As you may recall, since the harmonization question has not been resolved (charter question C4), further discussion among the EPDP Team is expected and the draft text on pp.1-3 is subject to change.
