Thanks Jeff.

Is there any indication of why this letter was sent?  Is it pressure from groups wanting another round for business reasons?  Is ICANN in need of more application money?  I don't mind feeling under a bit of pressure from the Board to move with all due speed, but I'd like to understand the "why" here.  Any thoughts (from you or from the list)?

Best,
Paul

Subject: Letter from Steve Crocker to GNSO Council Chair
 
All,
 
I came across this letter in passing and thought it was useful to send to the group as it relates to our work.  One of the items I would like to ask each work track to think about is the key question raised here:, namely within the work tracks, “Are there a set of critical issues that can be identified to be addressed prior to a new application process?”  Or, is it the view of the Community that the entire PDP must be completed prior to a new process?
 
I believe the identification of these issues is a critical first step of the work tracks and will help to produce work plans for the respective tracks.  I am cc’ing GNSO Council leadership on this email to keep them in the loop.
 
Best regards,
