Whereas the GNSO constituencies participated in a review of the proposed
settlement and have detailed statements on issues of concern,
Whereas the GNSO Council supports the principle of a settlement of
litigation between ICANN and Verisign,
Whereas the GNSO Council does not support all articles within this
proposed settlement,
Whereas the GNSO Council believes that there are broader questions raised
in the proposed settlement that need to be first addressed by the GNSO.

The GNSO Council resolves:

That the ICANN Board should postpone adoption of the proposed settlement
while the Council fully investigates the policy issues raised by the
proposed changes.
