Hello, All, It was great to see those of you who were in Hyderabad, and I hope that everyone had a safe trip home. Materials from both the ICANN57 project overview session <https://community.icann.org/display/IRT/4+November+2016%3A+ICANN57+Privacy+ and+Proxy+Services+Accreditation+Overview+Session> and the IRT working meeting <https://community.icann.org/display/IRT/9+November+2016%3A+IRT+Working+Meet ing%2C+ICANN57> are available on the wiki. For those of you who could not attend, I encourage you to listen to the recordings. There was general agreement among those in attendance that the contract-based framework proposed for the accreditation of privacy and proxy services fulfills the intent of the Final Recommendations. We are leaving this topic open for your input until 28 November. If you have any further comments on this point, please send it to the list no later than that date. Provided no issues are raised on this approach, we will begin digging into the substance of this project on our next call, scheduled for 14:00 UTC on 29 November. We will be distributing an invitation shortly, and a more detailed agenda prior to our call. Best, Amy Amy E.
