[council] Reporting on GAC request of ICANN on monitoring PICs

In case you missed this, here is news report coming out of the GAC meeting. It focuses on making PICs a part of contract language, making ICANN actively responsible for their compliance and a commitment from ICANN to not sign a new gTLD contract until GAC advice has been given. Note this: "ICANN COO Akram Attalah ensured: 'We will wait for GAC advice and ICANN Board reasoning and will not sign any contract before and put us in a position to have a contract change later.'” Here is the link: http://www.ip-watch.org/2013/04/06/at-icann-more-contractual-obligations-for...
