Andy and Steve,
I’ve gotten feedback from the Outreach Team and here are our contributions below. Apologies — I have a conflict and won’t be able to make the call today. If you need additional detail, we can provide it and by all means feel free to do any wordsmithing you feel helpful to make this flow with the rest of our comments.
Thanks to Marilyn and Jimson for their contributions on this!
Cheers, Andrew

Hi Steve, Andrew, and Phil,
Attached is my draft statement for the Staff's consideration, responding to each of the public comments addressing the new BC Charter. Please feel free to make any edits you feel are necessary.
I've left one highlighted note for the Outreach Committee to add content, and obviously any other comments from the membership are also welcome.
Best,
Andy

I’m directing this to the BC Charter drafting team (including Andrew Harris this time), although all BC members are invited to help.
The public comment period on the proposed BC charter recently concluded (link). There were 4 comments posted, plus our reply to Afnic’s comment.
I spoke with ICANN’s Rob Hoggarth in Iceland on Thursday, and learned that he is the staffer who will summarize the comments and prepare a report to the ICANN board. I asked Rob if he would consider a point-by-point response from the BC before he prepares his report to the Board. Rob welcomed that idea and said we could take up to 2 weeks to get him our response.
This is an excellent opportunity to help inform the board’s reaction to the public comments.
To get us started, I pasted the comments into a single doc (attached), with highlighted areas where we can explain our response.
I place this doc draft in the hands of our charter drafting committee — Andy Abrams (chair), Phil Corwin, and Andrew Harris.
We could also use help from the Outreach Committee regarding the draft response to Afnic’s comment. (Andrew Mack as chair, Jimson Olufuye, Marilyn Cade, and Lawrence OlaWale-Roberts)
Thanks in advance for editing the attached doc, and we should circulate for BC member review no later than 25-Feb.
—Steve
