Hi Jeff and Paul. Maybe you guys should let the small team meet first to address these questions and before a draft is prepared by anyone? Anne Anne Aikman-Scalese GNSO Councilor NomCom Non-Voting 2022-2024 anneicanngnso@gmail.com On Tue, Mar 21, 2023 at 12:14 PM Jeff Neuman via council < council@gnso.icann.org> wrote:

Understood, but the decision ultimately is for the Council. Leadership can help guide if you want them to.

As Emily stated, it is sometimes harder to get small teams to respond. I would be happy to put together a first draft of a response if you would like. I can send that around in next 24 hours.

Remember our response if most helpful to the Board if we can get it in prior to the Board meeting with the GAC on the Communique.
