In addition, the following materials would be helpful to review for reference: · Charter · GNSO Review Recommendations · Independent Examiner Final Report · Frequently Asked Questions Please also see the list of members, participants, and observers on the WG Wiki at https://community.icann.org/x/ZhmsAw that also have been subscribed to this mailing list; if you see that someone’s name has been omitted or added in error, please let us know as soon as possible. Please note that members and participants are expected to attend conference calls and to actively participate in online discussions. They also must submit a Statement of Interest per Section 5.0 of the GNSO Operating Procedures. Observers can follow the group's work on the mailing list but can neither send to the mailing list nor participate actively in the calls.
