Re: [council] Proposed cover letter for GNSO Letter to GAC


Avri and everyone,
 
My apologies for my delayed reply due to travel. If it's not too late,
I'm glad to say that I will support the redrafted version of the
letter.
 
My thanks to Stephane and the rest of the DT for taking this on, and in
particular for amending the letter to reflect concerns expressed on this
list.
 
Cheers
Mary

sure thing.

I am assuming that even with these abstentions, this is still worth  
sending.  Those of you who haven't abstained, please let the list know 

if this assumption is in error in the next few hours.

thanks

Dear Janis,

Attached please find a letter from the GNSO Council written in  
response to your opem letter of April 24 2009 to the ICANN CEO.  This 

communication has been approved by the GNSO Council with the noted   
abstention of the Commercial and Business Constituency,  Internet  
Service Providers and Connectivity Providers
Constituency, and of Kristina Rosette.  Additionally Mary Wong, as an 

active participant in the Implementation Recommendation Team (IRT),  
felt that support of this document at this time might be inconsistent 

with her work as part of the IRT and has also abstained.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment and for accepting our comment 

at this time.  The GNSO Council looks forward to discussing the issue 

with the GAC at our joint meeting in Sydney.

Best Regards,
