I prefer to wait for the next version of the plan. -----Original Message----- From: owner-council@gnso.icann.org [mailto:owner-council@gnso.icann.org] On Behalf Of Avri Doria Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2009 4:32 PM To: Council GNSO Subject: [council] Follow up on new gTLDs call. Hi, First I would like to reiterate my thanks to the staff for the support on the call and to all the participants. As I mentioned at the end of the call, we still need to discuss whether there is a need for any further action from the council at this point in time. We have had a lot of opportunity to speak with the implementation team about our questions and have had today's meeting to discuss in detail any areas where there were possible variance between the implementation plan and the approved policy. We have also received extensive information on the thoughts and work that went into the plan as currently drafted and we received information on the upcoming process for producing the next version of the plan. As I understand it, the implementation team is currently hard at work on comment's analysis and on making revisions to the plan and will be publishing both an analysis document and the revised plan. I expect that they will be taking the issues from today's discussions into account in this process. Do council member believe there is any reason to produce a document on the possible variance issues? Or is it enough to wait for the next version of the plan to check and see how all of these issues have been handled and responded to? If there is significant sentiment for further action at this time, I hope there will also be some volunteers to do the drafting. thanks a.
