Thanks Bart.

Regarding agenda item 5, I think it would be helpful if we discussed ways in which we can go through the charter as efficiently as possible.  Here are some personal thoughts for consideration by the DT:

· Many of the edits that have been suggested by different DT members are fairly minor and not controversial so it doesn’t seem like we need to discuss those in a live meeting.

· Other edits probably require DT discussion and some comments require discussion and a DT decision.

· One way to handle the above would be to ask all DT members to identify the items in each section that they believe need further discussion in a live meeting after which we could go through the draft section by section and discuss all items that were flagged as needing discussion; ideally it would be good if each of us did that before the live meeting on the list, but there is probably not time for that for our meeting on 28 July so if we could start the process of doing that in our 28 July meeting and ask everyone to continue that task before our 4 August meeting; we could use our remaining meetings starting with the one on 4 August to try to reach consensus on all of the identified items.

· If there are any items for which we cannot reach consensus by our target date, we could provide alternatives for the SOs and ACs to consider in our final draft charter.

As I said above, these are just my personal thoughts; I welcome other ideas for making the process of finalizing our work as efficient as possible.

Annex A Meeting notes and action items DT meeting 21 July

Notes / Action Items 21/7

• ICG timeline is still tentative and will need to be further discussed and considered by ICG - issues such as public comment and consultation has not been factored in
• Outreach / education needed on how naming relationship with IANA differs from other communities which may also be reflected in proposals that will eventually be submitted
• Not the role of the ICG to develop proposals or choose from competing proposals according to charter
• Draft timeline does not allow for resolution of possible issues or testing, incl. no transition window

Composition of ccWG

• Members (from chartering organizations)- consider keeping it relatively small to ensure being able to make progress (min. 2, max 3-5 from each chartering organization). Observers - consider leaving it open (can participate in conversations, but not responsible for getting the work done).
• SO/AC/SG/C should consider opening up their processes so that others interested could also join as members who are not necessarily formal members of SO/AC/SG/C
• Should this CWG redirect any requests from other communities to participate to their respective groups?
• Proposal to have chartering organizations have min. 2, max of 5 of representatives on the CWG. Open to observers from all communities. Make CWG operations as transparent and open as possible for all, both with regard to F2F as well as online meetings.
• Observers can provide input, but should decisions need to be made, only named members can provide input at that stage. - make sure to clarify this in the charter

Public consultations

• At least one, if not two public comment forums

Involvement of the GAC

• Reach out to the GAC and re-invite them (noting renewed committment to participate in community efforts following increase in GAC membership in ICG)

Development of workplan and timelines

• Consider how to provide feedback to ICG on timeline (end of year deadline may not be feasible)
• Consider having input ready following ICANN meeting in Marrakech as a possible alternative - what are other possible milestones in interim timeframe? Consider providing that feedback to ICG.
• Should work on development of charter be done in parallel with initial work of CWG or does charter need to be approved first? Might be difficult for CWG to commence without charter nailed down. Maybe some of the administrative elements could be commenced earlier, but the substantive work can only begin once the charter has been approved.
• Staff to develop draft timeline for public consultations by next week's meeting

Charter

(Edits in real time)

• The focus is on names but will not be limited exclusively to names. 
• Further comment on email list: 

•     Accountability 
•     Role of Maintainer
