Dear Kurt 
I fully agree with your arguments ,in particular, that in some limited instances we may be obliged to rewrite as trying to modify an existing text which would end to a text difficult to follow.
To review draft available materials on Tuesday is not excluded provided that are received Monday 29,00 hours allowing us to review
Tks very much got your kindly attention and reply 
Kavouss
Have a pleasant Sunday

In these cases, a re-write (rather than an edit) might be more efficacious. I do not know what degree of collaboration took place between ICANN and the contracted parties in the writing of the temporary specification. But absent some signal from the contracted parties that they had a substantial hand in it, I see no reason that deference should be paid to the original writing. If the replacement language is clear and a sound basis for a consensus policy, I hope we can support it.

If an edited or replacement text is available prior to the Tuesday meeting, I don’t know why the authors cannot present it and take preliminary questions. That opportunity might help the readers in their consideration of the text prior to the Thursday call. So again, I agree with the spirit of your comments (and Ayden’s support of it), In this case, I think we’d be better off taking some time to review the material if it is available.
