Hi all, Following up our Council discussion last Thursday, if anyone has further comments or suggested edits to the draft RPM Charter addendum, please send them to the list by 22:00 UTC on Tuesday, 1 October. To summarize comments to date, during the Council call, we agreed to remove or significantly amend the paragraph referencing Recs 1-4, and to include language suggested by Maxim related to expertise of participants. As discussed, this draft has been available for review and comment since 9 September, and we need to move it forward. Our target is to have this addendum ready for Council approval in Montreal, so your timely attention is appreciated. Once we have a stable draft, I will share it with GAC leadership and IGOs to seek preliminary feedback prior to our 24 October Council meeting. Best, Keith From: council <council-bounces@gnso.icann.org> On Behalf Of Mary Wong Sent: Monday, September 09, 2019 8:58 PM To: council@gnso.icann.org Subject: [EXTERNAL] [council] FOR DISCUSSION ONLY: Draft Addendum to RPM Charter SENT ON BEHALF OF PAUL MCGRADY Dear Councilors, On behalf of Paul McGrady, who led the small team effort along with Martin Silva Valent and Elsa Saad to develop a draft amendment to the current Review of All Rights Protection Mechanisms (RPMs) PDP Working Group Charter, please find attached a proposed draft Addendum to the RPM Charter for your review and discussion on the upcoming Council call. The document has also been reviewed by Petter Rindforth, the Chair of the IGO-INGO Curative Rights PDP Working Group. You will see some comments and yellow-highlighted text of some provisions that the Council may wish to discuss. Based on the small team’s understanding and the informal discussion that was held in Marrakech between several GNSO Councilors, GAC and IGO representatives, this draft document will also be sent to GAC leadership for their feedback, with the expectation that a final version can be voted on by the GNSO Council by/in Montreal. Thanks and cheers Mary & Steve (on behalf of Paul)
