Not too many people have commented on this, but all the comments are in a similar direction, so I’m going to go ahead and ask the ICANN folks to setup a forum and get a page ready that has all the relevant details, including a notice along the lines that Daniel proposes below about our much preferred communication mechanism being via the relevant communities and ICG participants. I’d like to also list an email address contact for the secretariat on the forum landing page, so that if people don’t know how to find a particular community or ICG participant, the secretariat can help point those people in the right direction or ask us for such direction. Let’s give a 10-day comment period once the page and forum get setup — compromise between 7 and 14. :) Plus if we do that we should have a decent chance of having some synthesis of the charter comments ready in time for our to-be-scheduled teleconference in late August. Comments welcome on this plan, of course. Alissa On 8/4/14, 8:30 AM, "Daniel Karrenberg" <daniel.karrenberg@ripe.net> wrote:

I agree that we should set up a mechanism for comments from the general public with the following properties:
It clearly, bluntly, repeatedly and unavoidably states that the preferred method for participation is via the relevant communities. Maybe we should have a check box where people have to acknowledge that they understand this before they can post a comment. ;-)
All comments should be stored in a public archive for all to see, including for us. Comments in this archive should be kept available for all to see for at least 5 years after they are made.
Discussion should be strongly discouraged in this mechanism. There are other places for that already; the most appropriate are the relevant communities.
We can then see all these comments and take them into account as appropriate.

Comments for the charter should be treated as just a special case of the above. 14 calendar days is about the right time for this as this is about the time we would need to get substantive comments from our communities and I do not see that final agreement on the charter will substantially delay our other current work.
