<span style="font-family:"Apple Color Emoji"">😊</span> In that case, as noted in our previous message to Rafik, we also believe that the Chair will be able to include the suggested consensus designations that will go out with the Final Report for WG members
and their groups to review.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Rafik and Julie <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">FYI - I gave our CPWG a brief update on Weds (22nd) of how the GGP has progressed since ICANN78 when all they were told was that we were still in discussion about the final status of our recommendations following the public comment.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">This week we had a look at each of the 9 recommendations (in the 15 mins - extended to 20, that I was assigned).<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">1) the original recommendation in our initial report; <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2) some key issues raised during the public comment;; <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">3) and finally an update on whether the recommendation statement had been altered or not, and if it was still outstanding, what the pressing issues were that may be holding up the recommendation and the different perspectives that have
been involved. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Following this presentation, I only had two people ask questions.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">1) from Hadia E- why were we being specific about "private sector entities" when it was assumed from the original statement that it already was inclusive by stating that support would be for 'those who may need and could qualify for support"?
I explained that there had been lots of discussion around this recommendation and that the consensus was that it gave more clarity about categories of applicants, even including private sector entities, but with the target group being those from underserved
and previously uninformed regions. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2) from Greg S - asked if pro bono service providers would bear their own costs for providing the services as not all professional services offer pro bono services, so that the range may not be as comprehensive or easy to access. We in
At-Large, as volunteers from outside of the internet service industry, know all about bearing our own costs to contribute our services to ICANN.. but I did mention that Org had recently surveyed potential service providers and that there was great interest
starting to build already.These services would be communicated and promoted so that applicants can make their own choices about who they want to talk to about whatever is on offer. There would be no "matchmaking". Greg suggested that there might have to be
a bit of marketing involved. I also mentioned that it would be specified as to what would be provided as a free service, and what would be within the realm of a paid service if more expert advice was required. This would be negotiated between the parties. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">From the feedback in the chat, this was a helpful update. I believe there will be few surprises when the final report comes out.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">First as rep, I believe we are still required to share the draft of final report and recommendations to our groups. So we will receive that on 28th Nov and groups have one week for review ? How the consensus call will be conducted e.g.
poll?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The report will include consensus designation? While we are discussed about the changes regarding recommendations during the review, I think we still have to consult our groups about support or not of the final version of recommendations.
Would the consensus designation happen or shared on 4th december meeting?<o:p></o:p></p>

b. GR#5: Retain language, or similar, “This should be considered a floor, not a ceiling, and ICANN should strive to exceed this minimum.” In addition, add to the rationale that adequate resources should be made available if the number of qualified applicants
exceeds or greatly exceeds the indicator of success, since the indicator of success should be seen as a floor, not a ceiling.<o:p></o:p></p>

c. Preamble text for GR#7-#9: <b>“</b>Per the GNSO Guidance Process Manual, “…it is recommended that the GNSO Council take into account whether the GGP Team has indicated that any recommendations contained in the Final Report are interdependent.”<sup>[1]</sup>
Accordingly, the GNSO working group emphasizes that the Implementation Review Team (IRT) should take into consideration potential dependencies among all the recommendations. In particular with respect to Guidance Recommendations 7, 8, and 9 relating to recommending
a methodology for allocating financial support where there is inadequate funding for all qualified applicants, the working group clarifies that these recommendations are to be interpreted as interdependent and that the objectives therein are to be balanced
as a key aspect of the program’s success.”<o:p></o:p></p>
