Subject: [EXTERNAL] ICANN Ombudsman: RDS Leadership Team and RDS Participants



Hello Chuck,



Thank you for accepting my request to join the GNSO RDS PDP WG email list.



As I have discussed with you and your leadership team, I will be reviewing the WG archives over the next couple of days before addressing a more fulsome email to all participants.



As mentioned I have received multiple complaints regarding behavior that contravenes the ICANN Expected Standards of Behavior and possibly the Community Anti-Harassment Policy, specifically in this working group.



The community is aware respect is high on my list of priorities and I consider it an important value that allows constructive debate.



I would like to inform the participants that I am now receiving all emails posted to the list and will discuss my findings with the group in an email before ICANN59.



Best regards,



Respectfully, Herb



Herb Waye
