All, A reminder that there was a group of councillors who volunteered at the last meeting to advance the development of our response to the ICANN CEO's letter on the Strawman proposals. The deadline for final response to Fadi is 22nd February so we really need to move this forward. Action Item: The Council agreed that further work on Mason Cole's initial draft letter of 14 December 2012 was needed. Councillors are invited to join the small group of volunteers, Mason Cole,Zahid Jamil, Brian Winterfeldt , John Berard and Maria Farrel to revise the letter to meet the desired deadline for input no later than 22 February 2013. Thanks. Jonathan From: owner-council@gnso.icann.org [mailto:owner-council@gnso.icann.org] On Behalf Of Jonathan Robinson Sent: 04 February 2013 11:44 To: council@gnso.icann.org Subject: [council] Action Items All, One of the outcomes of the GNSO Council Operations and Organisation Meeting last month 23 January 2013 was an agreement to produce and maintain an Actions Items record. The link to the Action Items list is here: https://community.icann.org/display/gnsocouncilmeetings/Action+Items It represents a record of current activity and commitments by GNSO Councillors and related ICANN Staff. It is distinct from the more comprehensive record of projects, the so-called "Pending Projects List". In fact we may well do some more work to streamline that - perhaps by simply calling it the Projects List! Please can you all refer to the Action Items record. Hopefully you will find it a useful reminder of any commitments you, your colleagues or staff have made. Also, you should be able to update it. So, to the extent that there is an Action Item that you have been working on, you will be able to dynamically provide updates. As ever, any other inputs or constructive comments most welcome. Thank-you. Jonathan
