<a href="https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=244944839">last call</a> that we wanted to touch once more on Predictability and Freedom of Expression during our next call (22 August 13 UTC). We did not manage to get the document ready by
COB today. So, I apologize but we will share the updated text tomorrow (Tuesday) morning CEST. The text will reflect the

we will take a quick look at the scheduling of our face-to-face meeting for ICANN78. If there is anything else you’d like us to cover, please let us know on list.
