Dear Craig,

Thank you for the question. It is ultimately the SG/C Chairs that will decide whether a subsequent EOI process will be opened. However, if the SSC would like to provide input on the matter, staff can share this with the SG/C Chairs. SSC members are welcome to share on list whether they think the SSC should provide input to the SG/C Chairs.

Kind regards,

Emily

Subject: [Ext] Follow up from January 7 Call

As I had an unexpected family medical matter to attend to this morning, it compromised my ability to fully participate in the call. I tried to type in the chat when I could.

The only matter for me that isn't clear with respect to next steps is whether or not a subsequent EOI for the CRG will be discussed/conducted to potentially fill the second slot available to the GSNO. Would appreciate hearing from ICANN staff on this.

Thank you,

Craig
