Thanks Berry.  Here is my input:

  *   I have no objections to the currently assigned consensus levels for the six recommendations, i.e., I support all six recommendations.
  *   I suggest that there be a 40-day comment period. I have at least three reasons for this suggestion: 1) the comment period includes the time of ICANN62 and it has been practice for several years to adjust comment periods in recognition that community members are extremely busy in preparation for and during ICANN meetings; 2) a 40-day comment period should minimize the chance of there being any requests for extension; 3) it appears that some SGs, Constituencies and ACs are not represented in the table of members who reconfirmed their intent to participate in the consensus call (RrSG, NCSG, At-Large) so those groups may require a little more time.
  *   I have no edits to the report.
  *   I affirm my support for the two outstanding items related to variant principles.

Chuck

Hi All

Please find attached the proposed Initial Report of the Reconvened WG.  This is the full report that includes required sections of Executive Summary, Background, and Deliberations of the WG along with the proposed recommendations that were sent to the WG last week in preparation for that meeting.  Like prior versions of the draft recommendations, Thomas has maintained a preliminary consensus level of "full consensus" for the six recommendations.

The task for members as a part of the continued consensus call is to announce any objections to the currently assigned consensus level by 19 June 2018 at 23:59 UTC.  Absent any objections, the Initial report will be prepared for a 30-day public comment proceeding.  Thomas is prepared to have this extended to the normal 40 days upon presentation to the GNSO Council of the Reconvened WG's status at ICANN62.

In addition to submission of objections, if any, members are also instructed to provide any feedback or proposed edits to this draft report.  Track changes are enabled.  You can make your suggested edits in the Word doc and return back to me for import into the master document.  Written suggestions are also welcome on the mailing list, and I can post the changes on your behalf in to the master.

Lastly, we still have two outstanding items to resolves as it relates to the variant principles and the definitive list.  Please send along your support or objection as well.
