Dear Avri, thank you very much for your email and the proposal from the At-Large New gTLD Working Group to to create an ALAC Objections Team (AOT). I have asked Staff to include an item on the ALAC call agenda to discuss this and make a decision. Until the call, I invite all ALAC members to read through this short proposal and share any comments on-line. Kind regards, Olivier On 22/03/2013 04:39, Avri Doria wrote:
Dear Olivier and members of ALAC,
Attached please find a consensus recommendation from the At-Large New gTLD WG (ANgWG) to the ALAC on Post Objection-Filing Activities.
Given the short time available for this task, due to application processing schedules, an accelerated process was used.
_Process by which the recommendation was developed:_
- It was first penned by Avri Doria, chair of the ANgWG, as a wiki document <https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Post+Objection-Filing+Activities>
- After the Initial Draft was posted on the ANgWG list <http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/gtld-wg/>, it was the subject of a special meeting <https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/New+gTLDs+WG++Teleconference+201...> where it was word-smithed by those attending the meeting.
- The final draft was then posted for a day to the ANgWG for further comments. No substantive comments were made.
- A 48 hour WG last call was called. Had any substantive changes been made when fewer than 24 hours were left of this call, it would have been extended for another 24 hours. While several cosmetic changes were made based on comments, no substantive changes were suggested or made.
- After the 48 hour WG last call was completed, an announcement was made to the WG list indicating the chair's belief that the document had been approved by the WG as a consensus document. Disagreement was solicited.
- Two typographic errors were discovered and fixed when the PDF was being created from the Wiki page for this mailing.
- 8 hours later, this note was sent to the ALAC chair and to the ALAC working group. The note is also being copied to the WG so that should anyone in the ANgWG feel that they did not have time or a chance to comment on the recommendation, or they have any other issue with the document or process, they are notified and invited to contact the ALAC directly with their issue.
Regards,
Avri Doria Chair, At-Large New gTLD Working Group
