Please note that within a few weeks all CCWG-Accountability meeting will have English captioning at least until the end of June 2017. 3. Work plan with regards to plenary feedback Fiona Asonga - We have been asked to reconsider when we publish the questionnaire by the co-chairs. We should post the questionnaire to receive general input as well as to the SOACs. Bernard Turcotte Staff Support: 42 days for public comments Julie Hammer (SSAC): Could we ask for 42 days, even though not a public comment, recognizing that we cannot dictate. avri doria: if we can't impose a date, then any date we suggest should be fine Fiona Asonga - would recommend 42 days for responses to questionnaire. Should we translate? Julia Charvolen: The question came from the LAC region in the GAC. One of the GAC representatives from the LAC region proposed to translate the questionnaire in Spanish. Julia Charvolen: The GAC Leadership asked the question about the questionnaire being translated Amal Al-Saqqaf: I don't think so Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO) 2: I always support translations Abdeldjalil Bachar Bong: i think before their answer so their members need to understand the questionnaire Julie Hammer (SSAC): Is it an option to post the English version first and follow up with translations? Abdeldjalil Bachar Bong: in their language (French ...) avri doria: ummm, once we start to translate, one can wonder why discriminate against any language. Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO) 2: FR ES EN as a min, best if can be 6 UN if possible plus Portuguese Abdeldjalil Bachar Bong: we need to show the diversity that we defend now Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO) 2: do remember we are the DIVERSITY WG avri doria: otherwise it can look like we only care about diversity of some non english speakers Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO) 2: yup avri doria: i.e. wee work in parallel? Amal Al-Saqqaf: agree with that but it depends on the plan of the diversity subgroup deadlines avri doria: of course taking a sevral month vaca from diversity work, can work as well. Andreea Brambilla: Agreed, we incorporate responses as they come in. But final responses will be required to confirm status quo, views of SOs/ACs etc Julie Hammer - work in parallel is what we have committed to do and makes sense given timing. Fiona Asonga - any objections/ (none). So the drafting team will clean up the document which will give time to have 3 readings and the readjust the document. Once everyone is comfortable we can send it to the plenary. Bernard Turcotte - Staff can assist with editing the document if the team wishes. 4. A.O.B Fiona Asonga - Any AOB's? (none) Adjourned. Decisions: * Request the Co-Chairs send the questionnaire to the SOACs in English ASAP requesting a response in 42 days. * Request the Co-Chairs publish the questionnaire similarly to the Jurisdiction questionnaire in all the ICANN languages + Portuguese requesting a response in 42 days from the date of publishing. * The Diversity sub-group will not interrupt its work on publishing a draft set of recommendations for June 2017 while the questionnaire is active.
