Dear Colleagues,

During the Sydney meeting, we were advised that the Board had reviewed the Transitional Charter for the Commercial Stakeholders Group ("CSG") that we submitted early this year and that the Board was recommending changes to our draft. The changes were minimal (a useful new article 1.3). Accordingly, the drafting committee that put together the original Transitional Charter met and decided to accept the Board's suggested revisions.

In addition, we have adjusted the dates found in the document to reflect the shifting of the seating of the new GNSO Council from June to October. Our newly revised draft is attached. For your convenience, all changes are highlighted in red text.

To expedite matters, we ask that only objections to this draft be voiced on or before COB, EDT Friday, July 17, 2009. If no objections are voiced, we will jointly submit this along with the other members of the CSG.
