Hi Michele,

I would like the update to actually reflect what topics the EPDP team is spending the bulk of its meetings discussing, and to highlight where there are challenges moving forward. It should also highlight where the Charter is unclear, or when documents are being provided with insufficient time for team members to review them. This is what I think the Council needs to be made aware of. 

This is a good supplementary report, but as we deliberate on PDP 3.0 and think about how we can improve that, being able to see what works and what isn’t working in the EPDP might offer us some lessons to repeat or not repeat.

I also think the report should explore how much progress has been made towards answering the questions that are outlined in the mission and scope of the EPDP's Charter.

Best wishes,

Ayden

If there’s something fundamentally going wrong within the ePDP both you and other members of the WG can surely signal it?

I’m not at all clear as to what kind of update you expect to be provided, especially as quite a few of us are tracking its work quite closely already

Regards

I am reluctant to make this comment, but I think it is necessary. I do not see any substantial changes between the format of the previous report and this one. I don’t think this communicated anything useful then, and this update does not leave me with an accurate snapshot of the two two-hour long EPDP meetings that I sat through last week. We need something better. 

If there is a need for a report that will give the community confidence that multistakeholderism is working, fine, let’s use this one. But the Council, if it is to deliver proper oversight over this EPDP, needs a separate report that does not sugarcoat what is really happening within meetings and glosses over the challenges actually being faced. 

If this same reporting format is used again, I will raise this same objection again.
