The paper provides an augmented list of questions needing firm answers for the implementation process and describes the foreseen consultative process. The very first step is now to verify the completeness of the list of questions. Is the list adequate and sufficiently complete to inform the implementation process in practice? Comments on that aspect are welcome by 22 July, i.e. a week after the end of the ICANN meeting in Luxemburg.
