[council] Final Consumer Metrics Advice

Councillors, As the GNSO Council liaison to the Consumer Metrics drafting team, it is my honor to forward for discussion a copy of the final advice letter. Recall that in response to the Affirmation of Commitments requirement for a post-new gTLD launch review of competition, consumer trust and consumer choice, the ICANN Board resolved in December 2010 to request advice from the ALAC, GAC, GNSO and ccNSO on establishing the definition, measures, and three year targets for those measures, for competition, consumer trust and consumer choice. That advice is attached. Also attached is a proposed timeline beginning with a request that we put this item on our September 13 meeting agenda. Cheers, John Berard
