Dear Wolf-Ulrich. Thank you for taking the lead on this motion, as well as providing Council with both options as it considers how to launch this effort with respect to the SCI. It would be great if Councilors could weigh in on this choice before our next call. Personally, I favor Option 1: We allow the SCI to complete its existing tasks, and then dissolve it in favor of the new GNSO Improvements implementation Group (um...GIIG?). Any new issues identified that would have otherwise been referred to the SCI would instead be referred to this group. As another thought, perhaps we should also task this new group with making recommendations for post-implementation management of ongoing improvements. This would mean including in its charter the question of whether or not we should create a successor SCI ("SCI2") to address ongoing issues. Thank you, J.

The idea is that this entity would on the one hand perform the review implementation work and on the other hand within a timeframe to be defined supersede the SCI by taking on board the related work. Since two options for this "handover" seem to be feasible - either directly after the SCI has finished its remaining tasks on the table at present or after the WG has finished its review implementation tasks - both options are offered for discussion in the motion as well as in the draft charter. I look forward to your feedback. Best regards Wolf-Ulrich
