Dear All,

Just to be clear, further to my last note, the comments that I included was what is being considered only.  APTLD has NOT established any position in this space.

There has been some discussion on the APTLD list.  That is ALL.

So, I apologies to all if my note was confusing.

Subject: [ccnso-council] Council meeting

Dear Colleagues,

Unfortunately i will not be able to attend the Council meeting tomorrow, however you will be in good hands with Katrina.

As part of the agenda, Becky will be providing an overview of some of the IG issues related to the oversight of IANA transition.  As part of the process that ICANN has recently proposed, the initial comment period on the process will end May 8th.  This is a very short period, too short in fact to go through a regular ccNSO process to achieve full consensus on input into the comment period.  As such, I believe it would be in our best interest to have a Council comment, which should be helpful to the rest of the ccNSO.  Becky will walk you through the attached "strawman" statement that builds on the statement we made in Singapore as well as a number of previous public statements the ccNSO has made.

I realize that this is arriving at a late stage, however given the short time frames and fluid, concurrent nature of many of the discussions, I hope you will find this to be productive.

All the best,
Byron
