Thanks Lisa,

And thanks everyone who has been working on the draft already, fantastic to see some movement on this already!
Just on a quick read let make sure we keep within the bounds of what a problem statement is and not let us try and start debating the issue within the problem statement, a good problem statement will always stay rally neutral and just defines what we are trying to do in a more concise manner than a larger issues paper such as the excellent document produced by staff.

Anyone who hasn’t read the issues report really should before providing input to the problem statement: I’ve attached it to this email for some nice airplane literature while we are all flying home.

Two other quick references to have a read of:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_statement
http://www.mit.edu/course/21/21.guide/prob-sta.htm

Safe home to everyone travelling back from Helsinki!

Dear Problem Statement Drafting Team –

 

A workspace page within the RDS PDP WG member wiki has now been created here:

 

https://community.icann.org/x/rACbAw

 

I have populated that page with a few initial links to your mailing list and etherpad, but you are free to revise and use that page in any manner you wish  to collaborate with each other on this assignment.

 

If you should have any trouble logging into the wiki or accessing the above link, just contact the GNSO secretariat (gnso-secs@icann.org) for wiki/mailing list support.

 

Safe travels to you all –

Lisa

Dear Lisa, 

 

Thanks for you communication. Then actually we could transfer to the Problem Statement to the wiki. we were looking for a collaborative platform where we can all edit and brainstorm and when google docs which China is not happy with came up. It was thought that etherpad can work. 

 

Otherwise I would not mind having a page created for the drafting team such that they can post. I also think that the members on this mailing list should have edit rights. 

 

Shane and all - what do you think about this?
