The statement missed the official July 15th deadline for the public consultation on the Third revision of the Draft Implementation Plan for the IDN ccTLD Fast Track Process. At-Large Staff advised Tina Dam, the Staff person responsible for this public consultation of the late arrival of the document, which was caused by delays in the adoption process.

The document has been transmitted to Tina Dam, with a copy going to the Secretary of the ICANN Board of Directors, on August 4th, 2009.
