I propose to hold the first conf-call in this format on April 9 at 10:00 UTC via Skype (my nicname yvk777) and during skype-conf decide how we will communicate in the future for what proposed agenda:

His obligations: (a) organization of the group conf-calls, (b) the synthesis of the results, and (c) to send them to chair.

B.1) the doc "Proposal for forming Cyrillic Generatiion Panel" in part concerned with SWG RUB (as known, deadline - end of April)

B.2) items on "remove Tabel 3" and "strip down introductory part 1" - propose to discuss during SWG conf-call - as part of suggestions for "Proposal...".

Vladimir, would you prepare arguments "yes/no" and your subject propositions on these two items to conf-call on April 9?

Please, if anybody has suggestions, corrections, and additions to agenda of SWG RUB - send them.

Let me remind, that during the conf-call was adopted the suggestion of Sarmad - on base recommendation of Integration panel - on evaluation of a languages levels on EGIDS scale (from 4 and lower).

Thus, in work plan of SWG RUB should be include relevant evaluation tasks with regards of ethnic minority languages

Thanks everyone for the call today. There were some very good suggestions on the call on how to amend the Proposal document such as creating a comprehensive list of Cyrillic languages.

I've reviewed the draft Proposal once again and I think Table 3 that lists the characters used in different languages should be removed for the time being from the Proposal document. This is all good work and we should definitely use it at some later stage, but inclusion it here can actually delay ICANN's evaluation of the Proposal.

Further, I'm of two minds regarding the introductory part 1 (paragraphs 100 - 116). While it does contain interesting facts, I'm not yet sure if all of them are relevant enough for the purposes of this document. Would appreciate hearing others' point of view on this.
