Thanks Mary.  I had hoped that some of the edits made dealt with earlier 
concerns.

        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,
