Thanks Steve. I can’t make the BC call tomorrow
because of the short notice. Since there is so little advance notice and
so little on the agenda of much interest to many members, I suspect most members
will not attend. But I am happy to answer questions on or off the list
about anything before the Council or otherwise on tomorrow’s agenda.
Here also is a link to the Council’s Pending Project List,
which in turn contains links to everything the Council is involved in.

In today’s meeting:
·
the Council approved the WHOIS “misuse” study as we
requested
·
the Council approved the slate of Review Team candidates as we
requested, not including the late proposed addition from the NCSG
·
the Council approved that the Vertical Integration report be
sent to the Board in advance of its retreat later this month, which we
supported
·
the Council approved the motion to create a ‘community
working group’ to advise ICANN wrt to the new gTLD recommendation re
Morality and Public Order
Another rather uneventful Council meeting, very little substance
to report. I do not expect that to change much until after the Board
retreat, if there are any resolutions from it.
Thanks,
Mike
