Bruce, Thanks for this. Good job. Why were the IDN ccTLD delegation requests redacted?

I think many Board members - including myself - see value in making these materials routinely available. The debate is then about the criteria for when something should be redacted or not. For example, you will see that the staff have redacted their reviews on the various IDN-ccTLD delegation requests. Let me know if you see something redacted that relates to the GNSO that you feel should have been public. See: http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/board-briefing-materials-1-25jun10-en.pd f (102 pages, and 2.33 Mbytes) and http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/board-briefing-materials-2-25jun10-en.pd f (216 pages and 2.2 Mbytes and ) The first document is the core Board papers and the second document is an annex with additional material.
