Dear Co-Chair,

Thank you very much for your thoughts and vision.

However, I am not in favour of closing dates to be 19 March due to the fact that for some SO/AC, physical ( FACE -TO FACE) discussion is considerably contribute to the public comments thus we need to have sufficient time to react. I suggest that the response time to HR be prolonged to end 30 calendre days after the end of ICANN 58. Once again we should not do the thing harshly .Please allow those constituencies like GAC that only in a physical meeting they would be able to have full debate on the matter and then after have sufficient time to respond to the public comment.

This is a formal proposal.

I request ,at the same time, our dear chair ,Niels to also not to be in hurry and allow us to think, top reflect and to react .

Regards

Kavouss

I don't think this would have my preference. Please allow me to explain.

Why would this be a problem? If the chartering organizations and
community members consider it before Copenhagen, we could use the
Copenhagen meeting to actually discuss the Public Comments and make
efficient use of our time to ensure we're done before out deadline in
June. Else I am afraid we have another F2F meeting with less content
discussion than we might have hoped.

The Framework of Interpretation is not an enormous document, so it would
be great to understand why this would be a problem.

I think it would be very beneficial for a constructive discussion in
Copenhagen to get the public comments on the FoI-HR before the meeting.

Next to that, I think it's also important to be able to keep on track
with our timeline, as well as keep the work-flow in the Human Rights
subgroup going. I am afraid that the longer this might take, the more
people we might lose.

Best,

Niels
