Dear EPDP-IDNs Team, We hope you are having a great 2-week break from the EPDP-IDNs! Based on the result of the doodle poll as well as re-evaluating the progress of the remaining work, the Team Meeting will resume on Thursday, 29 August, at 12:00 UTC on the usual meeting time. As previously announced, if the Team needs extra time for further discussions, this will be scheduled for another week in September. In addition, please review the updated language within Outputs 10-13, 16, 18-20 (pp.20-27, 29, 31-37). Kindly note that Outputs 14-15, and 17 are still a work in progress and will be flagged for review at a later date. Also, the Leadership will be reviewing the updated language in parallel with the Team: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vVbsKNfzHoqmuBH6VF1jF73Xr4A_UK7ZXiGmRJjV... As a reminder, kindly also review and provide feedback to the other requests below, including “grandfathered” suggestions, Section 3 (Glossary), and Section 4 (Outputs 1-9), for a fruitful meeting when we resume. Much appreciated, Steve, Dan, and Saewon.

The Leadership suggests that, if possible, the Team holds 2 meetings during the last week of August (possibly Tuesday, 27 August and the usual Thursday, 29 August), to not only pick up where we left off but to hopefully conclude the review of comments within the working document for all outputs and other public comment inputs. A doodle poll will be sent out for another meeting during the last week, and if not possible to find the extra time, our meeting will still proceed on Thursday, 29 August. Further scheduling for September (if any more to be scheduled beyond 5 September, other than the Final Consensus Call) will be discussed on 29 August. As another reminder, the updates for Recs.10-20 will be shared soon. In the meantime, please review and provide feedback to the requests below (as none have been provided yet), including “grandfathered” suggestions, Section 3 (Glossary), and Section 4 (Outputs 1-9), for a fruitful meeting when we resume. Much appreciated, Steve, Dan, and Saewon.

[docs.google.com]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EJdmbLg-m...> The columns are arranged as follows: * Column A: Relevant Output/Rationale (name/number) where the term is included * Column B: Particular sentence/paragraph including the term(s) * Column C: Replaced term(s) * Column D: Revised sentence/paragraph * Column E: Full text of the Output/Rationale to understand the context * Column F: Notes Upon Leadership/Staff’s revision of ICANN org’s suggested text(s), the Leadership has drawn the conclusion that ICANN org’s approach is the simplest and least disruptive in addressing org’s concerns about using the term, “grandfathered,” in our report. As you can see within the spreadsheet, the general term that was used to replace “grandfathered” was “exempted” (or in some cases, “excluded,” if duplicated within one sentence), which does seem to adequately convey the meaning or intent of the recommendations as drafted. As a reminder, the terms instead of “grandfathered,” that were suggested from ICANN org and the Team via discussions were: * Pre-existing domains * Exempted domains * Domains created before a certain date * Right of Continuance * Transitional exceptions Also as a reminder, please review Section 3 and Section 4 (Outputs 1-9) within the working docs as requested in the emails below. The links are shared with you again for your convenience: * Section 3 (Glossary) pp.8, 11-15: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DPjKUkbD6OUJ3iHkh3UZyEKFhVi-oGFdcG-7dfgc...
