Thanks, Mary. Well, if we do it the diplomatical way and send it to all, I presume that we will also extend our possibilities to in fact get some replies back and join us at least as observers. / Petter -- Petter Rindforth, LL M Fenix Legal KB Stureplan 4c, 4tr 114 35 Stockholm Sweden Fax: +46(0)8-4631010 Direct phone: +46(0)702-369360 E-mail: petter.rindforth@fenixlegal.eu www.fenixlegal.eu NOTICE This e-mail message is intended solely for the individual or individuals to whom it is addressed.

Hello everyone,
To be honest I’m not sure that we ought to distinguish between IGOs who are GAC Observers but not on the GAC List of Protected IGOs, IGOS who are not GAC Observers but are on the GAC List, and IGOs that are on both lists. At the same time, there is no quick and easy way to check the IGO/NGO status of all the GAC Observers, so we would suggest extending an invitation to all the GAC Observers.
Thanks and cheers Mary

Hi All,
1) I think we shall keep to the GAC list of Protected IGOs, and 2) Yes, I support the idea of sending a special invitation to those.

Hi Mary,
I think it should focus on the IGOs. That's why in my original suggestion, I wrote "perhaps we should extend an invitation to the IGO observers (there are a few non-IGOs, e.g. Red Cross)" in order to distinguish the "IGO observers" from the rest of the GAC observers.
But, perhaps others feel differently.
Sincerely,

Hello everyone,
While staff is happy to extend the invitation, we think it would be appropriate to first consult the Council as I do not recall another instance (at least, not in recent years that I know of) where a WG has formally invited specific GAC participants to join a WG. I’ll send a note to the Council on behalf of the group, and let you all know the Council’s view.
On a related note – the GAC list of Observers does include entities such as the International Red Cross Movement, who while they are protected by international treaty are not “IGOs” as defined for our purposes (multinational organizations created or constituted by governments). Also, the GAC list of Observers includes IGOs that are NOT on the GAC List of Protected IGOs (sent to ICANN in 2013 and the basis on which current protections, including those GNSO consensus recommendations recently adopted by the Board and other interim protections, have been extended.
Does the WG wish to invite all GAC Observers accordingly?
Thanks and cheers Mary

George,
Good idea! (at least worth a try ;-)
Formal question: Who will officially arrange for such invitation - ICANN Staff, GNSO Council, or??
Best, Petter

Hello,
The revised draft letter looks fine to me.
On another note, I noticed that the GAC website lists all the "observers":
<https://gacweb.icann.org/display/gacweb/GAC+Observers>
with most of their contact information. To disintermediate, perhaps we should extend an invitation to the IGO observers (there are a few non-IGOs, e.g. Red Cross) to see whether they'd join our working group?
