Thanks Marika .. I'll share the clean and pdf versions on the GAC list .. Kind Regards --Manal From: gac-gnso-cg-bounces(a)icann.org [mailto:gac-gnso-cg-bounces@icann.org] On Behalf Of Marika Konings Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2015 2:36 PM To: gac-gnso-cg(a)icann.org Subject: [Gac-gnso-cg] Updated Preliminary Recommendations Issue Scoping Dear All, Following the comments from Carlos and Amr, I've updated the preliminary recommendations document to reflect their feedback. You'll find attached both the redline and clean version, as well as the clean version in pdf format. Manal, Jonathan, will you distribute this document to the GAC and GNSO Council so everyone will hopefully have an opportunity to review the document prior to the joint GAC-GNSO Council meeting in Singapore? If easier, I'm sure Olof and I will be happy to assist as well to get this document shared with the respective groups. Best regards, Marika

Preliminary Recommendations of GAC-GNSO CG on Issue Scoping ..
by Manal Ismail Jan. 27, 2015

Jan. 27, 2015

Dear All, Following the last call, Marika has helpfully compiled the attached first draft of a possible report of recommendations to the GAC and GNSO concerning early engagement in the GNSO PDP .. In order to trigger input both from the CG as well as the GAC & GNSO, discussion to date is now turned into a number of preliminary recommendations and questions .. I believe on the last call it was suggested that it is more likely to get responses to concrete proposals than providing open ended questions .. The document now includes: - Explanatory cover note - Concrete recommendations by the CG for a proposed mechanism - Questions to ensure GAC and GNSO colleagues are part of the decision on a final mechanism - Text description of the suggested steps, in a table format - Illustrative diagram of the suggested steps, in the form of a flow chart With respect to our next meeting, we have received a few apologies due to the CCWG-Accountability F2F meeting in Frankfurt, and would hence suggest re-scheduling to January 27th .. .. Appreciate receiving your feedback / comments on the attached draft as well as confirming your availability for the next call on Tues. Jan. 27th .. Kind Regards --Manal

Tomorrow's GAC-GNSO CG meeting cancelled

Not having seen any further comments / questions, we’ll go ahead and cancel tomorrow’s meeting. I’ll share an updated version incorporating the edits suggested below as well as a clarification on the GAC leadership that can be shared with both groups shortly.

Hi, That sounds good to me. Thanks.

But if there are no objections, maybe I could add "and/or submitted to the public comment forum" so it also leaves this other avenue open and maybe this is an issue on which additional input can be sought during the discussions in Singapore?

Hi, Apologies for cutting it so close to the deadline, but I do have a question regarding preliminary recommendation #6. I’d be happy for an on-list answer, and certainly no need to have a call tomorrow on my account (although I am available for a call if so agreed). Is there a reason why we are recommending that communication of the outcome of the Quick Look Mechanism Committee (QLMC) be done via the GAC secretariat —> GNSO Council Liaison to the GAC —> policy staff. In the absence of any complications during the GAC deliberations, the outcome of the QLMC is meant to be ready by day 85 of the process, and can be submitted using the public comment forum as all inputs to preliminary issue reports are done. Wouldn’t it be simpler, more transparent as well as in-line with existing GNSO processes to do this, or is there something I’m missing? Thanks.
