I want to echo Cheryl's thanks to the working group members for the unbelievable amount of work that went into creating this document, largely between Christmas and New Years. Please note that the plan is to send this document out for general comment on Monday, Jan. 11. So any comments before it is sent out would be much appreciated.

The ad-hoc ABS-wg formed after our community call on Dec 22nd to draft a White Paper for community discussion and feedback on the topic has asked me to forward to this list the attached copy for you pre-public release feedback and comments.
Putting this together (particularly at this time of year has been quite a heroic effort and as ALAC Chair I want to thank the WG members and our staff (particularly Heidi) for doing such an amazing and professional job!
The ES & FR Versions will follow to this list shortly and we would appreciate if native language users could cross check these for accuracy with the original EN version as we are only using a machine translation tool.
The Wiki pages for comments are set up in a separate page per section to aid collection and collation of comments and these links will be forwarded to you shortly.
You should also note that we have arranged for the Final of this paper to be subject to the normal ICANN public comment processes which means that we will be 'publishing' this final on the 11th to fit with the required pre Nairobi meeting papers deadlines... I do apologize for the resulting compression of time you all now have to make your comments before this date but as this has been an extensively discussed matter it really should be an editorial rather than substantiative task.
Please make all comments etc., back to THIS LIST ONLY. until all our public comment and feedback options are finalized and set up in the next few days.
