Hi all As promised on our last call, Eric has reflected on the team's discussions and produced a third version of our Terms of Reference. I have made some additional suggestions. On our last couple of calls, it has been clear that various team members have different views on elements of our mandate. This is natural, to be expected and even encouraged as our work progresses. We are not attempting to railroad certainty where there is none. However, in the interests of achieving forward motion, we would like to propose this version to the team. Eric has done a great job in making a fair summary of the Team's reflections on the Bylaws language, in my view. I would like to draw your attention to the following changes: - Summary paragraphs which reflect on each of the elements set out in the bylaws. These reflect uncertainties where they exist (for example on the PTI) but in my view give us a strong starting point to say 'yes, that's what we will be doing'. - Updated schedule. The end date remains the same, but there is more space for fact finding and drafting. - Responsibilities of team members, proposed text for discussion. - Separate section at the end lists items which are proposed for deletion based on team discussions so far. These will not be part of the final document, but are there for transparency as we move to finalise it. *Please review this document, and start to socialise any concerns or comments on the list. The Co-Chairs hope we can agree the TOR and start moving forward on the substantive work of the Review as soon as possible - maybe even on the next call!* Best wishes to all, and look forward to our discussions on Tuesday.

Hi Emily, all, This is excellent and thanks to Eric for pulling the language together, I can support fully the language in this TOR and look forward to hopefully approving it on our next call. I think there will likely be discussions over the next few months over level of depth of review etc but for a ToR level document this is great. I particularly support the responsibilities of members part this is a good frame of reference for us all going forward. -James From: <ssr2-review-bounces@icann.org<mailto:ssr2-review-bounces@icann.org>> on behalf of Emily Taylor <emily.taylor@oxil.co.uk<mailto:emily.taylor@oxil.co.uk>> Date: Saturday 29 April 2017 at 09:54 To: SSR2 <ssr2-review@icann.org<mailto:ssr2-review@icann.org>> Subject: [Ssr2-review] TOR v3 Hi all As promised on our last call, Eric has reflected on the team's discussions and produced a third version of our Terms of Reference.
