Anne,

Although I understand your point, I would rather not make this change to the report now, but ask that you submit this as one of your public comments. I can see arguments on both sides of this and I am leery of making any changes at this late point without having a discussion of the group and understanding the impacts.

Thanks.

Sincerely,

Jeff

Subject: RE: Deadline Tuesday, 18 August: Final Check on Predictability and Closed Generics

Hi all,

In reviewing the Predictability Framework, I realized we overlooked a problem in prior drafts. The Recommendation says that the GNSO Council “may” review the work of the SPIRT and the Implementation Guidance is the section which notes that GNSO Council procedures take precedence. The statement below belongs in the Recommendation section and not the Implementation Guidance section. It is governed by the ByLaws and we will create confusion if it is characterized as “Implementation Guidance.” So please use this sentence in the Recommendation portion of the Predictability Framework.

2.2.2 b.

“In fact, the GNSO processes and procedures are incorporated into the Predictability Framework explicitly. In the event of a conflict, existing GNSO processes and procedures, including the GNSO Input Process, GNSO Guidance Process, and EPDP as contained in the Annexes to the GNSO Operating Procedures take precedence.”

Thank you,

Anne

Dear all,

The final text on Predictability and Closed Generics is now available for your review in the production document. The edits based on the action items from the WG’s recent deliberations on 13 August are reflected in the redlines. The deadline for comments is Tuesday, 18 August at 23:59 UTC.

Please limit feedback to errors in the edits, for example a revision that you believe does not accurately reflect the outcome of discussions about a “Can’t Live With” item.
Please send this type of feedback to the mailing list. Typo corrections can be sent directly to staff.
Please do not raise new issues, introduce new “Can’t Live With” items, or re-open deliberations.

Kind regards,

Julie
