Rosemary: I have been apprised that there are no motions scheduled for this Thursdays GNSO Council meeting; therefore, there is no need to implement any voting remedies such as proxy. Rather than attempt to write out the procedures, may I ask that you take a look at a visual map that Staff prepared which diagrams how the voting remedies work for various conditions such as absence or abstention. The procedures map is located at: http://gnso.icann.org/council/visual-procedures-map-en.htm and contains sample language for the various emails that might be created under different scenarios. Staff has a standing offer available to any SG/C that would like to have a briefing or tutorial on the voting remedies procedures.
