Re: [council] Draft Call for papers, new gTLD PDP

Olof, I may have additional comments, but one quick one. The reference to "oral presentations" should also say " via conference call". Also, I do not support limiting the response to only one question. For instance, by answering "Yes" to Q.1, and not answering any other question, THERE IS VERY little value to such a response. The purpose of this approach is to get substantive inputs that will not come in via the routine public comment process. I understand that it may not be able to get all questions answered, but we need to be cautious about suggesting that only one or two responses are adequate. We are not only inviting responses, but making a commitment to hear several of them via conf call, and of course all councilors always have to read all comments, as well as the analysis by the staff. So, we need to really encourage complete as possible responses. Is there a better way to do that without sayiing all have to be responded? Perhaps it needs to be a minimum of three responses? Thoughts? -----Original Message----- From: "olof nordling" <olof.nordling@icann.org> Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2005 16:00:24 To:<council@gnso.icann.org> Subject: [council] Draft Call for papers, new gTLD PDP Dear all, As you may recall we have a Call for Papers regarding the new gTLD PDP to write for announcement in early January. I have attached a very first draft to this effect and I would sincerely appreciate comments on the draft from those of you who happen to be on-line during these largely holiday-dominated days. The objective would be to have it distributed and posted on 3 January The draft includes the ToR in extenso (the announcement on the ICANN front page will have to be shorter, cutting the ToR part). Would this be enough or should we specify another layer of questions if so, which questions? Im looking forward to receiving your views on any aspects of the draft. Very best regards from Brussels (just lightly covered in snow, to mark the season) Olof Regards, Marilyn Cade
