Dear SCI members, I have seen no objections to scheduling the next call for Thursday 03 September, although a couple of members said they would be available in August if necessary. Thus, the GNSO Secretariat will go ahead and put the call on the schedule for 03 September. Thank you very much for your assistance.

Dear SCI members,

At the end of today's SCI call there was discussion concerning when the next call should be scheduled. Several members pointed out that since August is typically the month for holidays/vacations, if we keep to our usual schedule of a meeting every two weeks (which would be 06 and 20 August) we may end up canceling calls if there are few attendees. Thus, members suggested that it was preferable to schedule the call on Thursday, 03 September and to continue discussion of the issues on the list (for which I'll start two discussion threads).

If there are no objections the GNSO Secretariat will make arrangements to place the next call on the calendar for Thursday, 03 September at the usual time of 1800 UTC.

Best regards, Julie

Julie Hedlund, Policy Director
