Looks good to me. If there is opposition to sending that message then I suggest a revised message like this: ---------- The Board has received the Joint SO/AC New gTLD Applicant Support Working Group ( JAS WG)'s Second Milestone Report which was sent to it by ALAC. I understand that this report has not yet been approved by ALAC. I wish to highlight the fact that the GNSO Council has not approved this report yet either. In fact, the Council has only just received it. The GNSO is one of the two chartering organisations of the JAS WG and I am keen to ensure that the Board understands the nature of the report that it has been sent, and the circumstances under which it received it. I believe this report is for information purposes only and not intended to initiate any Board action at this time. I would be grateful therefore, if you could convey this message to the Board.

I've taken the references to the dates out and added Wolf's suggested sentence. Please let me know what you think. Stéphane Dear Peter, The Board has received the Joint SO/AC New gTLD Applicant Support Working Group ( JAS WG)'s Second Milestone Report which was sent to it by ALAC. We understand that this report has not yet been approved by ALAC. The GNSO Council wishes to highlight the fact that it has not approved this report yet either. In fact, the Council has only just received it. As one of the two chartering organisations of the JAS WG, the GNSO is keen to ensure that the Board understands the nature of the report that it has been sent, and the circumstances under which it received it. This report is for information purposes only and not intended to initiate any Board action at this time. I would be grateful therefore, if you could convey the GNSO Council's message to the Board. Best, Stéphane Van Gelder GNSO Council Chair
