Hi Steve,

Per my last email, this is a good idea.  Thanks for taking the lead in coordinating this.  I confirm I will look at module 2 as you note below.

I look forward to the call.

Best regards,

Subject: Helping BC members understand changes in the "final" Applicant guidebook

In our last BC meeting, you were among the members who volunteered to help us quickly digest significant changes in the so-called ‘final’ gTLD guidebook.  

ICANN will post the document on Tuesday 9-Nov.  (it will be featured on home page, but also should be at http://icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/dag-en.htm )

The BC is holding a member call on 11-Nov ( 10am eastern US time) to talk about policy topics we expect going into Cartagena.   

Best case, you guys join the 11-Nov call and offer your first-look analysis of how the new Guidebook changed vis-a-vis DAGv4.  
( ICANN usually posts redline comparison, though it may not be immediately available)

Let’s use a divide-and-conquer approach, by delegating Modules among you.  Please reply-all with change/confirm of these module assignments:

Module 1: Introduction to New gTLD Application Process and Fees.  
    Berry Cobb, Ron Andruff

Module 2: Evaluation Procedures.     
    Jon Nevett,   Adam Palmer (security criteria for applicants)    Zahid Jamil (rights protection mechanisms)

Module 3: Dispute Resolution.    John Berard, Ron Andruff

Module 4: String Contention.     Ron Andruff

Module 5: Transition to Delegation.  
    Greg Rattray, Fred Fellman ( flexibility for dot-brand TLDs, HSTLDs),   
    Berry Cobb  (mitigating malicious conduct), Jon Nevett (VI)

If additional discussion of the Guidebook is needed, we can do a another call on 18-Nov to focus on Guidebook changes.

Thanks,
Steve
