• There are a few cases where a group has given the rationale has been given followed by divergence. Sometimes it is categorized as concerns followed by divergence, but perhaps it should just be divergence with a rationale provided. There are a number of cases on tab F 2.4). Comments from BRG (line 50) and RrSG (line 51) may have this problem. Lines 34 (suggestion to change to divergence) and 35 are also cited.
• Staff will pull out these items for the summary document regardless, the highlighting helps staff condense the material. It is not a problem from staff perspective to change these to divergence if the group prefers.

AOB

• Leadership Team is thinking about how to use the time at ICANN65
• There will likely be two sessions on the first day
• Feedback is welcome on the agenda for these sessions
• The time may be used to summarize points of agreement and focus on difficult issues

• Additional substantive comment from one member -- geographic names must be protected for future generations. This protection should not be limited to specific lists.
