Dear WG Members, In support of the SubPro sessions on 4 November 2019, from 15:15-18:30 local time (see agenda here: https://community.icann.org/x/BY7kBg), leadership and staff have developed discussion papers for three topics. The creation of these discussion papers is not to introduce new information but rather, to organize existing materials to facilitate a constructive and productive discussion. Those three topics and relevant discussion papers can be found directly below, as well as on the agenda page. Predictability Framework (https://docs.google.com/document/d/12_x8zYR9r6zXqfA7dmoosSPH12NmcyJ-2FEjecGr...)
