All, This is a reminder that there is a meeting of the Staff Acct sub-group scheduled for Wednesday 17 January 19:00UTC to review the comments from the public consultation. The only non-process agenda item is to review the comments from the public consultation. To facilitate your work with respect to this please find attached three documents: - The first of these is an aggregation of all comments received to date in one PDF document - CCWG-Accountability-WS2-StaffAcct-PublicConsultation-January2018-AllComments - The second is the staff summary of all the comments received to date in one Excel spreadsheet document (CCWG-Accountability-WS2-StaffAcct-PublicComments-january2018-Summary) - there are two tabs one is sorted by commenter the other by subject. Additionally these have been colour coded by staff: - dark green is unqualified support or agreement - light green is support with comment or qualification - orange/yellow is concern with rec. - red is opposed to the rec. - No colour means the comment does not touch on a recommendation - The third is a PDF of the spreadsheet should you have issues with that format or version of the document. The usual process that has been used successfully is to go through the comments sorted by subject to allow the sub-group to consider all the comments on a given recommendation or topic and then start working on responses to these. As a reminder we are working to an ICANN 61 deadline (9 March) where the integrated report of all the WS2 recommendations has to presented to the plenary for approval so it can be published for public comment. As noted by the co-chairs this date is fixed and any recommendations which are not in the integrated report will not be considered. Bernard Turcotte ICANN Staff Support to the CCWG-Accountability-WS2
