I am not in support of making the Global DNS SSR Symposium a priority, without detail and funding and who it addresses. It does NOT have bottom up input and is another top down proposal, at this point. So, I would put it last at this point and explain again that detail is needed and we must ask whenthat detail will be provided. WHOIS Studies needs to stay at the top /maybe #2. That is essential, I think, since we will have to drive our support of these studies through this process, since the GNSO Council isn't likely to get its act together. If we knew what the amounts are, we might be able to actually prioritize...AS it is, I agree that the AoC reviews and implementation should be #1.
