Dear Katrina I like this plan, simple and objective. The SSAC and ccNSO working together. Better late than never, right? *;)* Best regards, Alejandra *Registro de Dominios .gt* -- Universidad del Valle de Guatemala. 18 Ave. 11-95. Z. 15. V.H. III. Edificio *J*.

Dear Councillors,
We have received a letter from the Board with questions regarding the report of the EPSRP WG that we submitted. As you know, SSAC advised the Board not to adopt the proposals in the report.
After discussions with SSAC it is clear to me that differences in our opinions are coming from different understanding of the essence of the proposals. The way I see it, it's more about the way we word them. For example, EPSRP WG said that the Registry must be given the right to mitigate the risks (of confusing similarity). The SSAC believes evaluation of mitigation strategy should be part of the overall evaluation process. Does one contradict the other? No. We have never objected to this approach (as long as IDN ccTLDs and IDN gTLDs are treated equally) and can fully subscribe to it.
I have agreed with Patrik, the Chair of the SSAC on the following steps:
1. ccNSO and SSAC create a very small (very informal) working party which addresses the questions in the Board's letter. 1-3 representatives from each side. I have spoken to Hiro and Wafa and they agreed to be our reps on this working party – thank you very much for this! They know the work of the EPSRP WG and are willing to resolve this issue as efficiently and pragmatically as possible. Anyone else would like to volunteer to do the job?
2. The working party with reps from ccNSO and SSAC develops a document (a common position).
3. Both SSAC and ccNSO Council approve the document and send it to the Board. The optimistic plan is to have it by Johannesburg. Will it be possible? Hopefully so.
4. ccNSO/SSAC present the position (solutions) to the Board.
How does the plan look to you? Any comments, suggestions?
Thank you and have a nice weekend!
Kind regards,
