Two more points. I realize that we agreed to put forward three Council representatives, however, I am rethinking the practicality of that... The BC does want to provide a name abut we appreciate that other constituencies will as well. I am sure that the CCNSO can manage if we have 3+, for that particular function. How about we consider opening this initial working session up a bit more.. and perhaps allow 4-5 attendees from the Council? Also, the BC will still give you our names for the Council's working group on Monday and may ask for one of the names for the organizing/coordinating function, which I assume is what the 3+3 effort will largely be about? Also, can we ask for feedback from Denise's team on who will be staffing this particular effort, and who will staff the Council? Thanks.

Decision 4: That the GNSO Council forms a GNSO working group of volunteers, conversant with the IDN issues raised in the IDN issues report. The purpose of the working group would be to:
(1) review the Issues Report,
(2) prioritise the policy issues in the Issues Report for further work,
(3) develop the terms of reference for an initial policy development process in the area of IDNs within the GNSO,
(4) propose ways of interacting with ICANN groups such as the President's Advisory Committee on IDNs, the GAC, ALAC, SSAC and other related groups in ICANN, and
(5) select three representatives to interact with the three ccNSO representatives to form a separate joint GNSO/ccNSO working group to:
(5.1) agree on the priority issues and determine whether to examine the issues as a single "joint" PDP, or as two separate PDPs
(5.2) provide a report to the GNSO and ccNSO Councils with recommendations for terms of reference of one or more PDPs, and the mechanisms for coordination with other parts of ICANN The group would aim to have recommendations completed by the end of July 2006.
