I am updating the document in Word to reflect the changes suggested here. Wolf Knoben:"improvements" just came from the "GNSO improvements project" Ron A:That is also my understanding, Ray. Julie Hedlund:@Ray -- the GNSO Improvements Process started in 2008 and extended I think into 2010. Ray Fassett:thanks Julie, that sounds right to me Jennifer Wolfe:It may be helpful to think of the SCI as a committee in best practices. Avri Doria:apologies, after 4 hours of assorted ICANn calls, this one slipped my mind until someone reminded me i a chat. Anne Aikman-Scalese:IF it falls inside the PDP, isn't that within the original charter? Julie Hedlund:The PDP Manual (the process) is part of the GNSO Operating Procedures and was amended as part of the GNSO Improvements Process -- under the PPSC Anne Aikman-Scalese:I recall someone saying that we would only look at effectiveness of new PDP manual after one year from implementation but everyone assumed that was part of the charter. Ken Bour:I'll drop off the call. Thank you all! I'll get cracking on a draft and will let you know when I think I can have something to review. Julie Hedlund:Thanks Ken for all your help! Ken Bour:Bye for now... Ron A:Thank you Ken Anne Aikman-Scalese:Julie, for the record, IPC does not agree with all of Option 2 and srongly opposes the criteria in 3. and 4. of Option 2 so minutes should reflect this. Thank you, Anne Mike O'Connor:i'd like to lobby that we NOT meet in Durban Bladel:I'm sorry, but I need to drop this call.
