In this section, the question is how long the proposals are going to take to complete, and it doesn't seem the question is being asked. In particular, in ΒΆ 200, it might be good to get some ball park estimates. So, for instance, for PTI, "Normal time for incorporation and approval of a public-benefit company as an affiliate takes [n-n+m] months." For CSC, perhaps some similar evidence for how long it normally takes for ICANN to agree on how to set up a standing committee. I suggest that the length of time that it took from the announcement of the creation of CWG-Stewardship until its complete population with all its members (not participants) might be a good example time. For the ICANN-PTI contract, perhaps use as a rough guide the amount of time it took the NTIA and ICANN to come to terms last time? Just some suggestions. I don't feel strongly about these, but they'd make the response more complete. A -- Andrew Sullivan ajs@anvilwalrusden.com
