Thank you Olivier!<div><br></div><div>Thank you Allan for your very good management of the last section of the teleconference today. I&#39;m not sure a Doodle will be appropriate for showing our preferences. So I will do it the old way:</div>

<div><br></div><div>1. I take my proposals back, (a) if staff can analyse the public comments <b><u>in an interactive way BEFORE</u></b> we get to Durban so we have<b><u> good practical real data/metrics</u></b> on public comments, and (b) the team agrees on allotting a least 90 minutes for discussion of ICANNs public interest position in relation to the other players of the community. I would like to bring in Jesse Stowell from MIT as a facilitator of the discussion, as my assistant, consultant or whatever you want to call him. Costs would be minimal for both proposals.</div>

<div><br></div><div>2. If there is money left for a &quot;Grand Consultant&quot; (and I had though the one pagers where the solution for smaller consulting tasks and leaving the THINKING to ourselves, as per the previous to last call,<b> but apparently I got it all wrong</b>) my priorities are:</div>

<div><ul><li>(A) Governments perception of ICANNs A&amp;T as per Jorgen&#39;s proposal and other contributions</li><li>(B) A case Study of the gTLD PDP as per Allans proposal, which think is a very good one by the way</li>

<li>(C) orward looking ICANNs finances, i.e. projected to the future (either benchmark or comparison), if the analysis can focus on the impact  of gTLDs on the *overall income from the DNS world, **income from actual TLDs (.org for example) and ***income for ccTLDs. In other words how much bigger is the pie going to get and its probable distribution</li>

</ul></div><div>Cheers</div><div>Carlos Raul</div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2013/5/23 Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:ocl@gih.com" target="_blank">ocl@gih.com</a>&gt;</span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

If the decision is made by this Committee to hire an external<br>
consultant, this Committee would probably need to advise ICANN Finance<br>
of this requirement so as to be able to retribute the external<br>
consultant accordingly.<br>
