Thank you for posting this, Olivier. At the ALAC new-gTLD Working Group, since I raised this issue for discussion there has been no dissent and only comment in favour. I would like to propose that we open the concept of the Policy Advisory Board model -- as a supplement and possible replacement for certain TLD strings -- for a formal Public Comment. If possible I would like to start this PCP as soon as possible so we have some valuable input in time for Singapore. Is this doable? If so, what is the process to create an formal ALAC-initiated Public Comment Process? Does it require an ALAC vote? Whatever the process, I would like to do what I can do to make this happen ASAP if it has broader At-Large support. - Evan On 14 February 2014 17:31, Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond <ocl@gih.com> wrote:

Dear Cherine,
Please find our response to Christine Willett's letter of 02 February 2014 attached.
On behalf of the signatories and many many others in the ICANN community we trust that the NGPC will give due reconsider to our request to give the larger community an opportunity to comment on the safeguards recommended in the Policy Advisory Board model.
Thank you taking this up within the NGPC.
Kind regards,
