RE: [council] ICANN Board briefing materials for the Trondheim meeting - 24/25 September 2010

["Tim Ruiz" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I imagine that the risk analysis may have included who may sue ICANN and
why based on various outcomes, so I can see why that might be redacted
(speculative) but it wasn't likely the entire sum of the analysis, or at
least I hope. For example, I would assume the DOJ was consulted based on
the SW proposal and their analysis of the VI-WG proposals. Why would the
results of that be redacted?
