Dear All, Following the last CG update to the GNSO and GAC at ICANN57, staff has worked with the CG leadership team and developed the attached ‘draft final status update and recommendations’ document for your review. This document provides an overview of the achievements to date as well as reviews the outstanding items in conjunction with proposed recommendations to close these items out taking into account the input received in response to the survey. The objective is to deliver this final status update to the GNSO and GAC ahead of ICANN57 to allow for review and discussion and possibly adoption of the recommendations and closure of the CG during ICANN57. As such you are encouraged to review this document and share any comments / edits you may have on the mailing list. In parallel we’ll go ahead and circulate a doodle poll with the aim to schedule a CG meeting in the week of 26 September to review and discussion any input received. Thanks, Marika Marika Konings Senior Policy Director & Team Leader for the GNSO, Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) Email: marika.konings@icann.org Follow the GNSO via Twitter @ICANN_GNSO Find out more about the GNSO by taking our interactive courses and visiting the GNSO Newcomer pages.
