I second this motion Olga 2010/6/2 Gomes, Chuck <cgomes@verisign.com>
I am hereby making the following motion in order to meet the 8-day advance requirement for our 10 June Council meeting. Please note that on the OSC list the issue of whether the comments submitted in the public comment period (all 4 of them) might create a need to revise the CCT recommendations in some way was raised, but the OSC did not reach any decision one way or the other in that regard. After reviewing the comments myself, it did not appear to me that they would necessitate any changes, so I personally thought it best to go ahead and make the motion. If the Council thinks differently or, if between now and 10 June, the OSC takes a position on that, we can deal with that. But we will at least have the motion on the table so that we can take action if we are ready.
Please make the members of your various groups aware of the motion as soon as possible. Thanks to Julie Hedland for drafting the motion.
Chuck
