Hi folks, Attached is a response to the Summary Report prepared by the Liaison, listing my concerns with it (which I've previously attempted to bring to the attention of Ms. Kawaguchi and Ms. Forrest, repeatedly and to no avail). I understand that the Summary Report will be presented to GNSO Council later today (in 4 hours) as part of an "update" to them, thus I wanted to formalize these concerns before that call, so they're on the record. I carefully read the latest email to the mailing list of an hour ago (sent on behalf of Susan Kawaguchi), https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-igo-ingo-crp/2018-April/001138.html in the hopes that it would have addressed my concern. Had it done so, I would happiley deleted my document. But I did not see anything that caused me to modify the response. In particular, there was no "misunderstanding" -- I read what was in the actual Summary Report itself and understood its implications (see the response with the list of concerns). There's still no revised strawman. There were no scheduled deliberations for this week (i.e. today) or any planned in the future. Indeed, today's email creates a brand-new artificial deadline for our work, once again making things up as they go along. The Summary Report hasn't been withdrawn, or seen its errors fixed (e.g. clear errors in arithmetic). Instead, concerns are delegitimized by a sweeping statement that the report was "misunderstood." We deserve better than this. I hope these concerns are taken seriously, so we can move forward and bring this PDP to a successful conclusion, with a final report that is in accordance with the long established working group guidelines and procedures.

Dear IGO-INGO Curative Rights Policy Development Process Working Group members,
I write to update you, in my role as GNSO Council Liaison to this Working Group, on the status of the WG member consultation process that was set out in my email of 9 March 2018 and then actioned during ICANN61 and following.
As envisaged in my email of 9 March, staff and I are preparing a report for the Working Group on the input received at and since ICANN61, with recommendations on next steps from me and Heather Forrest, the GNSO Chair. We anticipate posting the report to the WG list at the end of this week, for discussion at a WG meeting to be held at the group's usual time next Thursday, 19 April. At that meeting, I will be happy to present a summary of the report and its recommendations, and answer questions from WG members.
An email from staff with call details will be circulated shortly. Bear in mind that we do not have Adobe Connect, so alternate arrangements will be made to support our call.
In the meantime, I sincerely thank you for taking the time to provide me with your feedback, which contributes to the substantial work of the group on this challenging policy area.
Kind regards,
Susan Kawaguchi
Councilor for the Business Constituency
