Thanks. I will remind my folks that observers observe.  Alan

Hi,

If the invitation already went out inviting observers, it would seem rude to rescind it at this point. Although I was hoping to keep the meeting somewhat focused.

if no one objects, I will go back on my previous suggestion and accept that it is too late for that suggestion. I.e. the invitation as Glen has sent it stands and observers are invited.

Based on Glen's announcement that the meeting was open to observers, I have already issues an invitation. I am expecting Cheryl, Sebastian and perhaps Danny.

I take it that you now want me to withdraw that?

Hi,

I was asked whether this meeting was open to observers as the previous
meetings had been.  Since we are focusing mainly on issues related to
possible variance between the GNSO Council recommendations and the
implementation plan and on our recent motions, I thought it better
that it be essentially an extended council meeting - but one without
motions.  In that respect I suggest we follow the practice we have
followed with other such extended council meetings, most recently wih
the  Whois study DT, and allow for substitutions but not observers.
The meeting will be recorded and that recording will be available to
all.

thanks

Hi

Based on what I have heard spoken of so far, the following is a
draft agenda for the New gTLD meeting on 15 January.


1 - Discuss areas at variance with GNSO policy principles,
recommendations and guidelines.  Possible areas include, i.a.:

 -  Principle G: Do the review criteria infringe on freedom of
expression
 -  Recommendation 1: Are the price levels discriminatory?
 -  Recommendation 2:  Extent of confusing similarity
  - Recommendation 5: Reserved names issues
     - geographic
      - 2 char IDN
 - Recommendation 17: what is the clear compliance and sanctions
process?
 - IG B: Recommended cost based fees with different applicants
paying different fees.  Are these fees really cost based? Are some
applicants subsidizing other applicants?
 - IG F:  Board resolution process was recommended instead of
Auction
 - IG O: Are there any plans for a fee reduction schedule for gTLS
applicants from economies classified as least developed?
 - Others?

2 - Discuss the motions we passed vis a vis new gTLDs
- introducion of idn tlds
- Implementation guideline (IG) E

3 - Discuss the comments received

4 - Discuss follow-up process to this meeting
