Dear Councillors,

As you might know, we were not quorate at the last Council call, which meant that we had four topics to approve online:

  1. Nomination & Election Timeline
  2. New Capacity Study Group Members
  3. ccNSO Statement Guidelines
  4. New gTLD Input (reply to Bertrand's letter)
The timeline received 10 approvals from all regions, so it passed. The New Capacity Study Group Members received 11 approvals from all regions, so it also passed.

The ccNSO Statement Guidelines only received 8 votes in favour and one suggestion for amendements (and one vote supporting the guidelines only with the amendments).

The email to Bertrand on New gTLDs received 3 votes in favour and one suggestion for amendments.

As no one voted against the ccNSO Statement Guidelines and the New gTLD input, I understand some Councillors still need to get familiarised with the topic. I will forward them once again to the list and will extend the deadline for your approval to Wednesday, 12 September.

Gabi
