FYI, as received - Dev Anand ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Andrew Weissberg <andyw@dothealthgtld.com> Date: Wed, Mar 6, 2013 at 3:36 PM Subject: In response to Eric Brunner Williams' Comments (http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/na-discuss/2013-March/002351.html) To: Dev Anand Teelucksingh <devtee@gmail.com> Cc: Richard Butcher <richardobutcher2@gmail.com>, "Neuman, Jeff" <Jeff.Neuman@neustar.us>, Neil Posner <neil.posner@digitalpublishingpartners.com> Hello Dev, I am responding to the comments assertions which were made by Eric Brunner-Williams at Wed Mar 6 18:20:02 UTC 2013, which are duly noted and accessible at http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/na-discuss/2013-March/002351.html. For the record, and for the ALAC's full clarification and understanding: We indeed promptly shared the DotHealth, LLC PIC Specification with the ADG of the World Health Organization (WHO) via e-mail (9:34PM Eastern Time on 3/5/13), as well as with the leadership and primary contact points at the NABP and our other supporting organizations on 3/5/13 - roughly hours after it had been submitted to ICANN. We also provided background information surrounding the ICANN request/recommendation for PIC specifications. If necessary, such individuals can be directly contacted regarding these matters, and for which I'd be happy to attempt to facilitate if needed. Today, we posted the DotHealth, LLC PIC specification on our web site (http://dothealthgtld.com/news.html) and which was uploaded to the ICANN New gTLD web site less than 3 hours ago. The "modality" of such commitments (as Eric suggests in his comments) are in direct response to WHO Executive Board Resolution 10.5, the follow on directives from the WHO's Director General for this tabled resolution, as well as in consideration of DotHealth's previous, current and continued dialogue with the Assistant Director General of the WHO regarding the .health TLD and the DotHealth, LLC application (https://gtldresult.icann.org/application-result/applicationstatus/applicatio...) As it has been advised that only members of the ALAC should be posting comments on its community forums, and having respect for these established processes and rules, I will leave it to you to decide on how this information is further communicated to your colleagues and peers in the ALAC. Sincerely yours, Andy Weissberg Andy Weissberg, Co-founder & CEO DotHealth, LLC
