Dear all,

Please find attached an updated draft of the proposed Electronic Voting procedure for the GNSO Council, based on the SCI meeting on 22 July. Please note also that, after consulting with Ron as the Chair, the finalized language for this procedure will be sent out together with the previously-approved language for the 10-day Motion Waiver procedure for a formal Consensus Call. Following the conclusion of the Consensus Call and assuming the two procedures are approved, staff will then prepare to send them out - together with the previously-adopted language regarding WG Consensus Levels - for public comment and GNSO Council review.

We will, as per usual practice, also notify and consult with ICANN Legal on all these adopted procedures, to ensure that they are in general conformity with other rules and processes in the ICANN community.

Thanks and cheers

Mary
