Thanks Warren.
This report is on the agenda for the 3 September 2015 teleconference.
Cool thanks.
This somewhat feels like a black hole -- the Caucus WG works on a document for a long time, and polishes it nicely, then it disappears into the "real" RSSAC and we wait, hoping to hear something at some unspecified time in the future...
I found this message, and I realize I should have responded sooner. I spend less time here than I should, as RSSAC admin stuff takes much of my time. See it from the positive side: I fend it off from you so you can discuss the cool stuff. ;-) The document was indeed on the agenda for the Sep 3 RSSAC teleconf and it was unanimously and happily approved for publication without as much as a question. It was sent on a 48-hour notice to ICANN's Board of Directors (as we do - so they can prepare for the barrage of questions from journalists ;-)), and, I must say that I'm positively amazed that it was picked up by Steve Crocker (the chariman of the board) who went on to find a techincal nit in it - one that we've obviously all missed! :-) (Simply the use of the word "average" where the obvious intent was "median".) After confirming with the work party that this was indeed a "typo", this is now being addressed before publication, but the doc will go out Real Soon Now(TM). The document has received quite appreciative words from the people who have seen it thus far as a thorough work of high quality, and I can only concur. I would hereby like to extend my warmest thanks to those involved in creating it. I'm impressed by the quality and timeliness by which is was produced. It is well and much appreciated. Thanks to Duane for running the work party, and to Joe, Jaap, John B, Brian, Shumon, Warren, Daniel M, Shinta, and Matthew for contributing your time and expertise, and, of course, to our ICANN staff support Kathy, Steve S, and Barbara for helping to create this document! If there is someone I've missed, I apologize, and if so, you should feel warmly included in my thanks.
